You can request to run reports against your Statistics
HDB from either: option 4 Report from the Historical Database
Menu; or option 7 Statistics from the Primary Option Menu,
and then option 3 Historical Databases.... A Statistics HDB
contains data records from CICS® Statistics
class SMF records and CICS Transaction
Gateway statistics SMF records.
There are two types of Statistics HDB report:
- Online reports
- Rather than generating a batch report, you view Statistics HDB
data interactively using the CICS PA dialog.
For details, see Statistics reporting using the dialog.
- Statistics Alert HDB reports
- These batch reports alert you when data records in a Statistics
HDB meet conditions that you have specified in a Statistics Alert
definition. For details, see Statistics Alert HDB Reporting.
