Connector ID X'xxxx' not mapped by Performance
Dictionary record
Explanation
There is an incompatibility between the CMF Performance
records and their associated Dictionary record for the specified CICS® APPLID.
The CMF Performance records contain data for the specified Connector
ID, however their Dictionary record did not include a CMF field definition
for this Connector ID. When the Field ID in error is a “CMF field”,
then this might be a serious problem. It might be caused by the Dictionary
and Performance records being generated by different versions of CICS.
When the Field ID in error is a “User Field”, then this might indicate
that the Dictionary record does not contain the User Fields defined
in the MCT for this CICS APPLID.
System action
Processing continues for this CICS APPLID,
however only CMF fields with Connector IDs resolved before the problem
occurred are available for reporting.
User response
Your response will depend on the source of the
Dictionary record. There are three possible sources from where
CICS PA can
obtain the Dictionary record:
- CICS PA found
the Dictionary record in the SMF File. Message CPA0221I
was issued previously to indicate this. If the Dictionary record was
written by CICS when the Monitor started, then a serious
problem has occurred. Use the CICS DFH$MOLS
utility to analyze your CMF data. This will help you determine the
source of the error. In this case, you might need to contact your IBM® representative
for help.
If you created the Dictionary record (using the CICS DFHMNDUP
utility) and concatenated it ahead of your SMF File DD specification,
then verify that the Dictionary record is for the correct version
of CICS, or that your MCT specification matches
the one used by CICS.
- The Dictionary record was created from the CICS PA dialog
and CICS PA read
it from the CPADICTR File. Message CPA0228I
was issued previously to indicate this. If the Field ID in error is
a “user field”, then you probably created your Dictionary record with
an incorrect MCT specification. Return to the dialog and ensure that
your MCT specification matches the one used by CICS.
- CICS PA used
the default Dictionary record for your version of CICS.
Message CPA0230I
was issued previously to indicate this. If the Field ID in error is
a “user field”, then your CICS APPLID probably uses an MCT
with user fields defined. If you want to report against the user fields,
then create a Dictionary record using the CICS PA
dialog.
