Generate CICS MASS Reports provides functionality to compare up to 20 CICS observations, creating an "X - Multi Address Space" series of reports. One or more observations that include a CICS Extractor must already be tagged and the observation where the Generate CICS MASS Reports is selected, will serve as the base.
When selected, this action will trigger formatting of the "Multi Address Space" reports on z/OS then download the reports to the local repository.
The reports are then available for viewing in the Observation Reports List View. A reports icon is displayed on the observation where this action was selected.
Once the report is been downloaded, it is available until deleted via the Delete Reports action.
If in addition to the CICS MASS Reports, all the reports for the observation are to be viewed, the Download Reports action must be selected after the Generate CICS MASS Reports has completed.
Note: This action is only available if the z/OS connection has been established and the remote repository is active.
