To display information about and control the use of resource monitoring, you can use the Active monitor specifications view identified in Table 5. To access this and other resource monitoring views, click Monitoring views on the WUI main menu.

In the EUI, you can use the MONACTV view to display information about and control the use of resource monitoring. For a detailed description of the MONACTV view, see Analysis definitions.

Note:
When you discard or deactivate an administration definition, it is removed from the active CICS system. It is not removed from the data repository. Thus, the next time the CICS system starts or the appropriate time period is reached, the definition is available for use.
