    This is a duplicate of 121458 (see http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewChangeRequest&CR_ID=121458) which has already been declined with text as follows:

    CICS has no plans to provide monitoring of AIDs on a per transaction basis as this would involve an unacceptable performance overhead to the running system.
