Number of affinity records per workload

The number of affinity records saved for a workload is based on the number of unique resource names. Resource names are associated with some commands but not others.

For example, resource names are associated with ENQUEUE, DEQUEUE, and TSQ commands, but not with GETMAIN SHARED and WAIT EVENT commands. If a CICS® IA exit processes a TS queue request for a TS queue that it has not encountered before, it creates a new affinity record. CICS IA does not, however, create a new affinity record for a WAIT EVENT request.
