Order of precedence

When processing performance class data, CICS® PA might read more than one dictionary record. CICS PA applies the following order of precedence to determine the dictionary record to use to analyze the data:
  1. SMF file
  2. CPADICTR DD statement
  3. Default

That is, if the SMF data set that contains the performance record being processed has a dictionary record, then CICS PA uses that dictionary record. CICS PA uses the last dictionary record read and disregards any previously read. If the dictionary record is missing, then CICS PA uses the dictionary record in the CPADICTR data set. If that too is missing, then CICS PA uses the default dictionary record for the release of the CICS system being processed.
