You can filter the VSAM spheres listed in the VSAM sphere list. A VSAM sphere is defined as belonging to an instance (CICS®, DFSMStvs, and CICS VR) when logging has been performed for the VSAM sphere by the specific instance.
Select option 4 from the pull down menu as described in Using the VSAM sphere list View pull-down menu to display the "CICS VR VSAM sphere list instance identifier filter" secondary window.
CICSVR VSAM sphere list instance identifier filter
Enter up to ten CICS APPLIDs, TVSNAMEs, and CICSVR IDs, then press Enter.
Any VSAM sphere that is on the CICSVR VSAM sphere list, and is
defined to one of the specified instance identifiers, is on the
filtered CICSVR VSAM sphere list.

Use this secondary window to filter the VSAM spheres previously listed on the VSAM sphere list, Using the VSAM sphere list View pull-down menu, based on the ID of the instances to which the VSAM spheres are defined (CICS APPLID, TVSNAME, and CICS VR ID).
For example, if a CICS region with an APPLID of CICSPROD runs an application and performs forward recovery logging for VSAM sphere TEST.VSAM.SPHERE, CICS VR registers VSAM sphere TEST.VSAM.SPHERE as belonging to CICS APPLID instance CICSPROD.
You can specify up to ten CICS APPLIDs, where cccccccc is the CICS APPLID of a CICS instance that is specified in the CICS APPLID system initialization parameter.
You can specify up to ten TVSNAMEs, where nnn is the TVSNAME of a specific DFSMStvs instance defined in the TVSNAME definition in the IGDSMSxx PARMLIB member.
The CICSVR ID for a specific CICS VR instance is displayed in the text of message DWW245I, on the system console, when the CICS VR address space is initialized. Also, you can obtain the CICSVR ID value by issuing the DISPLAY SMS,CICSVR operator command.

In another example, if you enter PROD1 and PROD2 on the CICS APPLID input fields and also enter 001 on the TVSNAME input field, any VSAM sphere that was previously listed on the CICS VR VSAM sphere list and is defined to either CICS APPLID PROD1 or PROD2, or TVSNAME instance 001 is displayed on the filtered CICS VR VSAM sphere list.
