PROFILE command

This command displays an input panel where you can define which messages you want to see.

You can specify up to six patterns for message origins to be included and six patterns for message origins to be excluded in the display. Generic qualifiers can be used to define these patterns.

Example

You can include all messages from CICS* and exclude all messages from CICSTEST, as shown in Figure 1.

The PROFILE specifications are saved in userid.BBPROF member LDPARM00. This enables each user to have an individual application profile.

You also can include messages from the current target specified in the TGT field by specifying the variable &target, in the Included Origins column, as shown in Figure 2.

Figure 3 shows a sample of the Enhanced Journal Facility output produced from the profile specified in Figure 2. It displays only those messages from target, DB2F.

To view the origin of the messages in the Log Display, scroll to the left.

Note

You must specify JOURNAL=ENHANCED in BBPARM member BBISSP00 for the target BBI-SS PAS for the PROFILE specifications to take effect.

The PROFILE specifications are not active for a target of LOCAL.
