Short-term reports

Short-term reports show resource usage for the current or immediately preceding CICS execution, as follows:

• The Destination Control Table Report provides either detailed or summarized usage of intra- and extrapartition transient data.

• The File Control Table Report provides either detailed file usage at specific times of the day or total file activity.

  Warning

  Note

  The File Control Table Report includes only active table entries.

• The Journal Control Table Report provides either detailed journal and journal buffer usage at specific times of the day or total journal activity.

• The Processing Program Table Report provides table-entry statistics that can start with the program name, the highest fetch count, or the highest use count.

  Warning

  Note

  The Processing Program Table Report includes only active table entries.

• The Program Control Table Report provides either detailed transaction usage at specific times of the day or total activity for each transaction.

  Warning

  Note

  The Program Control Table Report includes only active table entries.

• The Temporary Storage Table Report provides the usage of temporary storage and the auxiliary temporary storage data set.

• The Terminal Control Table Report provides either terminal activity at specific times of the day or total terminal activity.

  Warning

  Note

  Short-term reports are generated by using PRL input with distributed sample report statements.

Long-term reports

Long-term report programs report about tabulated transaction or program resource usage, either individually or grouped as application systems or as histograms of CICS performance.

These reports are as follows:

• The Resource Analysis Report tabulates resource usage and run-time statistics on transactions or programs individually or as a grouped application. The control statements submitted with the batch job control language determine time and date ranges, report input, chronological ordering of the data, and the report output type (a summarized or detailed report or a report of only the resources not meeting service levels).
• The Graphic Histogram Report produces histograms of selected CICS performance parameters or resource usage. The control statements submitted with the batch job define the CICS performance parameters that appear in a report.
• The Service Level Analysis Report shows the distribution of transactions into service level ranges.
