    We have a CICS COBOL program that utilizes CPSM APIs to obtain information on tasks running in the CICS regions. The time is used to determine how long each task has been in execution. The information (CPUTIME & RMITIME) is matched against the a limit we set for each environment (Development, Stress, QA, Production) and purges long-running tasks. The program was written many years ago and the original author is no longer with the company so we are unable to supply any additional details.

    Hi,

    May we know what sort of business problem you are trying to solve by using the converted CPUTIME and RMITIME values?

    Thanks.
