CICSLINK

Brings up the CICS® Trace Link Analysis display that represents the execution path and hierarchy of CICS® transaction nested linked programs. See an example of the analysis display in Internal CICS Trace Link Analysis (CICSLINK).

If you execute this command while you are viewing a formatted CICS® trace from a CICS® system dump or auxiliary trace data set, you will be prompted for the task number to analyze, unless the cursor is already positioned on the desired task number.

This command is only available while you are viewing a formatted CICS® trace.
