Yes, this is something we would like to do. The status of the RFE is being moved into Planned for a future release.
We are planning to provide this via APAR PH37264 for CICS PA v5.4
Thank you for the additional information. We will consider this requirement in more detail. I will move it to our list of "Uncommitted candidates" RFEs for CICS PA and prioritize with all the other RFEs. As the status implies, we are not able to commit to this enhancement as yet.
We would like to correlate the CICS interaction with z/OS Connect for the API and Service name, z/OS Connect CPU usage, Endpoint information, make any information that is available in the SMF type 123 subtype 1 record format Version 2 for API provider and SMF type 123 subtype 2 record format Version 2 for API requester to be release soon.
You may need to capture the CPU usage from the WAS Liberty SMF type 120 record (We're not sure of the subtype).
For reporting/analysis, we'd like to see the CICS transaction performance and the correlated z/OS Connect performance, CPU response times, etc.
We also want to be able to correlate the relationship between the CICS transaction/program and the z/OS Connect API/Service.
Please contact the IBM z/OS Connect team for more information.
This is not something that has been requested by any other CICS PA customers. Please provide details on the metrics that are of interest from the SMF 123 records and what kind of reporting and analysis you would be looking to do.
