This panel allows you to specify the systems that belong to the
Group. To select one or more from a list of available systems, position
the cursor on the System field and press Prompt (F4) or enter
the S line action.
A group is identified by its name and description:
- Group
- The name of a Group to uniquely
identify a group of systems. The name can be up to eight alphanumeric
(A-Z,0-9) or special (@,#,$)
characters.
A Group name is an arbitrary name used to identify
a group of related CICS® systems
for reporting purposes, such as those systems that connect via IRC/MRO,
ISC/APPC, IPIC, or transaction grouping.
- Description
- Description is free-format text up to 36 characters to describe
the group.
Each system in the list has the following attributes:
- System, Type, Image
- A System is identified by the combination of:
- System name which is one of the following depending on the type:
- CICS generic APPLID
- MVS™ (SMF) Image ID
- DB2® Subsystem ID
- WebSphere® MQ
Subsystem ID
- MVS System Logger
- Type of System: CICS,
Image, DB2, MQ, or Logger
- MVS (SMF) Image ID
You can enter a system name directly. Alternatively, to select
one or more from a list, enter the line action S or press Prompt (F4)
from the System field.

Primary Commands
- FIND string
- This command (or F)
looks for the specified character string in all columns or a subset
of columns in the displayed data. The string need only be enclosed
in quotes if there are embedded spaces. The search is not case sensitive.
The display scrolls to the row where the string is found and positions
the cursor on the matching data. To find more occurrences, use F5 or
the RFIND command repeatedly.
If there
is no match but the search did not begin at the start of the list,
the screen does not change and the message *Bottom of data
reached* is displayed. Use F5 or RFIND to search
from the top. If there is no match in the entire list, the screen
does not change and the message
No CHARS xxx found
is displayed.
Also available from Edit in
the action bar.
- SORT SYSTEM|TYPE|IMAGE|DESCription
- This command sorts the list
of Systems on the specified column. The default is SYSTEM (then TYPE
and IMAGE). The order is retained on exit.
Also available from Edit in
the action bar.
- RESET
- This command (or RES)
removes all outstanding line actions and deletes any blank rows.
