Attempting to call IFI from a CICS program is a horrible idea, in the unlikely event that it is supported. Additionally, the logic to retrieve log records via IFI is highly specialized and requires z/OS waits, something not to be done in CICS programming.

I'm trying to capture/send DB2 log record using IFI call. The storage requirement is ECSA key 7 storage: "The return area for monitor programs that issue IFCID 0306 requests must reside either in ECSA key 7 storage or in the 64-bit common key 7 storage area above the 2-GB bar" (from IBM book). I prefer to use CICS because it's easy programming. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ================================ Rocket Software, Inc. and subsidiaries ■ 77 Fourth Avenue, Waltham MA 02451 ■ Main Office Toll Free Number: +1 855.577.4323 Contact Customer Support: https://my.rocketsoftware.com/RocketCommunity/RCEmailSupport Unsubscribe from Marketing Messages/Manage Your Subscription Preferences - http://www.rocketsoftware.com/manage-your-email-preferences Privacy Policy - http://www.rocketsoftware.com/company/legal/privacy-policy ================================ This communication and any attachments may contain confidential information of Rocket Software, Inc.
