The EXEC CICS COLLECT STATISTICS command

In addition to the types of statistics data described above, there is an online EXEC
CICS COLLECT STATISTICS function. Online statistics are collected and returned
to the invoking application.

The three sample programs DFH0STAT, DFH$STCN, and DFH$STAS show how
you can use the EXEC CICS COLLECT STATISTICS and EXEC CICS INQUIRE
commands to produce a useful analysis of a CICS system. The programs produce
a report showing critical system parameters from the CICS dispatcher, together with
loader statistics and an analysis of the CICS storage manager. DFH0STAT is
provided in VS COBOL II; DFH$STCN and DFH$STAS are provided in assembler
language.

For programming information about the EXEC CICS COLLECT STATISTICS
command, see the

CICS System Programming Reference manual.

For information about installing and operating the sample statistics programs, see
the

CICS System Definition Guide. For information about the data produced by the

programs, see the

CICS Performance Guide.

CICS statistics record format

This section describes the format of CICS statistics SMF type 110 records in detail.
You need this information if you write your own program to analyze the statistics
data. The three components of a CICS statistics record are an SMF header, an
SMF product section, and a CICS data section, as shown in Figure 93. Each of
these is described in the sections that follow.
