This section describes the messages that the Collector, Query interface, Dependency Reporter, Affinities Reporter, Load Module Scanner, CSECT Scanner, and Builder can issue, and the transaction abend codes that the Collector can produce.
This information describes the IBM® CICS® Interdependency Analyzer for z/OS®. It explains what the program does and how to set up and run its various components.
CICS® IA Version 6.3 maintains broad functionality and provides full support for the new CICS Transaction Server 6.3. Building on previous releases, it includes updates for commands whose threadsafe status has been enhanced in CICS Transaction Server 6.3, enabling more applications to run without switching to QR TCB mode
This section gives an overview of the CICS® Interdependency Analyzer (CICS IA), and describes its components.
The CICS® Interdependency Analyzer plug-in for CICS Explorer® provides an Eclipse-based interface to analyze your CICS IA data. It also provides cheat sheets that guide you through the steps required to configure and install CICS IA. It is recommended that you download the CICS IA plug-in and follow the steps in the cheat sheets.
This section describes what you need to do before you can use CICS® IA.
You run the CICS® IA Collector to look for instances of program commands that might cause resource dependencies or transaction affinities.
The Dependency database objects contain accumulated data about your applications and the resources that they use. Update the database objects regularly to add new information recorded by the Collector in the VSAM dependency files.
With each new release CICS® IA captures more data. In volatile development environments this data can soon become out of date. If you have out of date data, the CICS IA plug-in might retrieve more data than you need. The presence of unwanted data might impede your analysis and provide confusing results.
CICS® IA provides jobs to unload CICS IA data into CSV files. These files can be used to populate the IBM® supported UDB databases.
The threadsafe report can be run from the CICS IA Explorer plug-in or as a batch job using the sample CIUJTSQ2 that can be found in SCIUSAMP.CICS. The report runs the Db2® stored procedure CIUSPTSR.
The Load Module Scanner scans load modules for instances of program commands that could cause resource dependencies or transaction affinities.
The CICS® IA CSECT Scanner scans load modules for information that can be used to identify the version of each CSECT.
The CICS® IA Builder runs as a batch job to build affinity-transaction-group definitions suitable for input to the CICS system management product, CICSPlex SM.
This section describes how to run the sample CICS® IA batch query job CIUJSAMP.
This section helps you to isolate and determine the cause of CICS® IA problems.
Information on IBM® support policy can be found on our Web site.
