CICS Performance Analyzer


IBM CICS Performance Analyzer for z/OS V3.2 is a powerful off-line reporting tool that analyzes the System Management Facilities (SMF) records created by the CICS Monitoring Facility (CMF), CICS Statistics, CICS Server Statistics, as well as SMF data from the related subsystems (DB2 and WebSphere MQ), to produce a wide range of reports and extracts that will help you tune and manage your CICS systems.
