You can pause the collection of dependency or affinity data on a particular region only when the Collector is running on that region.
To pause the collection of data on a specified CICS® region, use one of the methods shown in Table 1. 1
Where used | Command or function key |
---|---|
CINT transaction's Operations Menu, CIU100 | Type 3 against a listed CICS APPLID and press Enter. |
CINT transaction's Operations Menu, CIU100 | If there is more than one CICS region listed on the Operations Menu, you can type “3” against the first CICS APPLID in the list ("ALL") and press Enter to pause the Collector on all the regions. |
3270 terminal | CINT PAUSE 2 |
3270 terminal | CINT PAUSEALL 3 |
Console | F cicsjob, CINT PAUSE 4 |
Console | F cicsjob, CINT PAUSEALL 5 |
Application program | EXEC CICS START TRANSID('CINT') FROM('PAUSE') 6 |
Application program | EXEC CICS START TRANSID('CINT') FROM('PAUSEALL') 7 |
Using one of the methods listed in Table 1 causes the Collector to stop collecting data until you are ready to resume. The data already collected remains in the data space, and is saved to the dependency data or affinity data VSAM files if that option has been set. (You can specify that data be saved when the Collector is paused on the Regional Resource Options screen, as described in Specifying region-specific options: general.)
