Hope I'm not wrong when I say that REXX has support to read VB and VBS... from
v2r3 or something.
That said, you'll start crying as soon as you try to start processing CICS SMF
in REXX.
If you have any CICS monitoring product that records its own SMF, it's easier
to start recording that SMF
CICS has native support (CMF - CICS Monitoring Facility) for
generating SMF records documenting errors, transaction detail
(performance class), and region interval activity. These can (and
usually do) go to SMF, but can go to other log files. Other monitors
have that capability of capturing
EasySMF can report on CICS transaction SMF date. It's not free (if
that's a requirement) but it is inexpensive.

Tom,
Another aside
Quick and Dirty way of changing the RECFM *without* an authorised command.
//MAKEVB EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSINDD *
//SYSUT1 DD DUMMY,
CICS can produce the related SMF records. Some monitors such as omegamon
also produce transaction usage history that can save you some SMF records.
Some products, such as zSecure can read VBS files as well.
Last thing, Rexx EXECIO can process VBS files.

codes and have summary or detailed statistics. See also the STAT

Radoslaw,
Hmm are you sure you are getting the right results? Unless you typed in the
JCL, that wouldn't give you the right results.
Reason : Your first COPY operation is writing the output to a ddname called
"TEMP', However your DISPLAY is reading from the ddname TEMP0001
You should spend an hour or five with your CICS Performance book then all
will become clear.

Sri,
Complete control cards:
SORT FROM(WEJDATA) TO(TEMP) USING(REPO)
DISPLAY FROM(TEMP0001) LIST(PRINT) -
PAGE -
TITLE('Some title')-
DATE(DM4-) -
TIME(24:) -
BLANK -
NOCC -
ON(19,8,CH) HEADER('user') -
ON(10,10,CH)
Not a real answer - but more of a side question for others. Whenever I
wanted a quick look at SMF records I would dump what I was interested in
to my own dataset, which was VBS of course. Then I used an auth command
we had called DSCBMOD (maybe from CBT?) to change VBS to VB and I was
off
I've worked at a number of mainframe installations, and at many of them I've
encountered a dataset that logs usage of CICS transactions. Usually it's a
GDG, either weekly or monthly, wherein each record contains a transaction, a
user ID and a count. I'm not a CICS support guru -- in fact in
Such a neat solution Kolusu, thanks. I'll try it out.
Thanks,

Thanks for the plug Tom - this was designed for a specific set of tutorial
panels and I never tried it with the IBM ISPF panels. Thus YMMV.

Did you check

Karthik,
You don't need multiple IFTHEN statements. A simple Overlay of 52 byte with
a space will get the desired results for OP

Radoslaw,
It would have been nice if you showed me the complete control cards. I am
going to take an educated guess and the reason you are not getting the
right results is due to the fact that you have short records and you
referring to fields beyond the length stored in RDW.
Do you see an
HTH,
1) Hope the RDW 4 bytes are considered while processing the VB file.
2) Please check if the card below is working.
//CTL1CNTL DD *
OPTION COPY
OUTREC IFTHEN=(WHEN=(45,2,CH,EQ,C'NO'),
BUILD=(1:1,44,45:45,2,48:5X)),
IFTHEN=(WHEN=(45,2,CH,EQ,C'YES'),
(yet another DFSORT question)
Source file is RECFM=VB. Last field is text, expected values are YES,
NO, UNKNOWN
The goal is to put this field in ICETOOL report, like
...
ON(45,7,CH) HEADER('status')
However it doesn't work.
Is it possible to change DFSORT behavior and logically add spaces to
21 matches
