Chapter 3: Landmark Product Communication
A performance problem in any address space in your network can
affect performance throughout the system. The ability to monitor
the complete system enables you to locate and solve system
problems quickly and easily. You can use Landmark product
communication to define a network between products and monitor
address spaces anywhere in the network.
The following PerformanceWorks MVS products support Landmark
product communication.
• TMON for CICS/ESA
• TMON for CICS/MVS
• TMON for DB2
• TMON for DBCTL
• TMON for MQSeries
• TMON for MVS
A product you want to access that exists in the same processor
complex is called a local product. Its VTAM applid is a local applid.
A product you want to access that exists in a different processor
complex is called a remote product. Its VTAM applid is a remote
applid. These terms are used throughout this chapter.
Access Methods
Landmark product communication consists of three types of
interproduct communication: explicit pass-through, implicit
pass-through, and NaviGate.
Explicit and Implicit
Pass-Through You can access another product anywhere in the network,
regardless of which processor complex it resides in, using one of
the pass-through connections.
Explicit pass-through is product-to-product communication initiated
by the user. It can occur between products in the same or different
processor complexes.
Implicit pass-through is product-to-product communication initiated
automatically by the system. It occurs only between address
spaces of the same product and can occur between products in the
same or in different processor complexes.
• TMON for CICS has implicit pass-through connections to other
TMON for CICS products on any processor complex.
• TMON for DB2 has implicit pass-through connections to other
TMON for DB2 products on any processor complex.
