    CICS Region AKP statistics

    CICS regions collect statistics on the number of AKPs that have been taken, these counts are reset based on the statistics interval. Often the statistics interval may be quite small, maybe 15 minutes, thus this makes it more difficult to look at A...

    CICS Explorer - ability to view / filter SIT parms for multiple regions

    Currently the CICS SIT parms (for combined, JCL, SYSIN etc) can only be displayed in an Attribute view for a single CICS region. We would like the ability to view / filter SIT parms for multiple regions similar to the way other Region Attributes c...

    New CICSPlex SM routing algorithm

    We are not able to manage our online workload in an efficient way by using the CICSPlex SM Sysplex Optimized Workload Routing. If we use QUEUE/LNQUEUE algorithm, performance objectives defined in WLM are not being taken into consideration for rout...

    make program EYU9XSTR Threadsafe,

    We are trying to reduce Threadsafe TCB swapping; we are QR TCB constrained. In trace I notice that EYU9XSTR causes a TCB SWAP L8 to QR; see trace below, I notice an old RFE from Circa '18 to have this done; was not considered at that time; I'd lik...

    TranClass Queue Expiration Time

    Improve the Transaction Class queue to accept defining an expiration time for transactions queued waiting for 1st dispatch. This enhancement will provide de CICS to manage the queue only for transactions that still need to execute and it would rel...

    Optimizing DASD Space on DFHAUX and DFHDMP files

    Bradesco has a very large CICS environment (over 500 cics regions) and highlighted the large amount of disk space consumed by the datasets allocation for the DFHDMP and DFHAUXT files, which are not actually often used. He suggested the possibility...

    Uncaptured wait time for CICS webservices

    We are seeing a high uncaptured wait time for webservice attach tasks.This time should be captured and recorded in the CICS SMF 110 Performance class record. An auxtrace has shown that the uncaptured time is spent suspended waiting for resource 'R...

    It should be possible to specify another RUNAWAY(ICVR) value for when task is running on open TCBs(L8/L9/T8?).

    It should be possible to have one ICVR value for when task is running on the QR TCB and other non-open TCBs, and anther value for when task is running on open TCBs(L8/L9/T8?) This would enable us to allow larger ICVR values for tasks running on op...
