Specifying region-specific options: Region configuration

Select 2 Configure Region Options from the Collector Main Administration Menu panel, CIU000. The Collector Region Configuration Menu panel, CIU200 appears.

The Region Configuration Menu contains a list, which might be empty, of CICS® regions to be monitored by CICS® IA. If more than one CICS® region is in the list, you can use the list item named ALL to specify that an operation is applied to all the regions in the list. Also, you can use the list item named DEFAULTS to set or change the default values for a specified operation. Initially:
  • The values of all the DEFAULTS options are set to the CICS® IA system defaults.
  • The values of all the Collector region-specific options are set to blanks, which means that you use the DEFAULTS values.
From the Region Configuration Menu panel, you can:
  • Add a CICS® region to the list of those to be monitored by CICS® IA.
  • Delete a CICS® region from the list of those to be monitored by CICS® IA.
  • Copy a CICS® region and create a new region with the same resource options as the region being copied.
  • Call up a further panel to set or modify some region-specific options for one or for all of the regions being monitored; see Specifying resource options: Region configuration.

Note:
  1. The action codes that you can specify:
    1=Add Region
    On any line, enter the new region APPLID and SYSID in the New Applid and New Sysid fields, respectively. Type 1 in the Act field and press Enter. CICS® IA adds the new region to its list of regions to be monitored, giving system default values to all region-specific Collector options for the new region.
    2=Copy Region
    On a line describing an existing region, enter the new region APPLID and SYSID in the New Applid and New Sysid fields, respectively. Type 2 in the Act field and press Enter. CICS® IA adds the new region to its list of regions to be monitored, copying the values to all region-specific Collector options from those of the existing region.
    3=Delete Region
    On a line describing an existing region, type 3 in the Act field and press Enter. CICS® IA deletes the region from its list of regions to be monitored.
    4=Options
    Displays the Resource Options panel, CIU290, which enables you to select, in further panels, what commands are to be monitored.
  2. This item allows you to set or change the default values for your chosen operation. You cannot select DEFAULTS with action codes 2 or 3.
  3. If more than one CICS® region is listed on the Region Configuration Menu, an extra item appears at the top of the list, with an APPLID and SYSID of ALL. This item allows you to specify that the chosen operation is to be applied to all the regions in the list. You cannot select ALL with action codes 2 or 3.
  4. Each line that contains data represents a CICS® region. To perform an action against one of the listed regions, type an action code in its Act field and press Enter.
