Add mouse hover overs to CICS Explorer PA Plugin reports and Historical DB displays

When using the CICS PA Plugin, there is no easy reference point from the PA plugin column headings to the 8 byte name in the PA documentation. For many of us in the non-IBM world that are not performance experts, I would like to see a mouse hover over the column headings in the PA displays that shows the relevant 8 byte PA short name so that we can reference the PA documentation from Explorer.

I would also like to see a link to a definition of that column heading. I mean, if we are to use GUI type systems such as CICS Explorer, we should not have to keep going back to an online InfoCenter to be able to understand the reports.

    Having discussed this with development I can confirm that detailed information about these metrics is available in the CICS Information Center which can be invoked using the Internal Web Browser view in the Explorer.
    As such, we would not want to duplicate this information in the CICS PA plug-in as it could get out of date. The CICS performance information in the Information Center remains the best place to get detailed information
    about the performance metrics provided in the CICS PA plug-in.
