Visualizing CICS program load activity
You can use the LDG Loader global, LDG Storage DSA, and LDG Storage EDSA views to visualize CICS® program load activity and analyze transaction activity and program usage in relation to the CICS Dynamic Storage Areas (DSAs) and the amount of program storage allocated.
About this task
You can access these statistical analysis views from CICS Loader statistical data in the sheet views or a CICS Loader alert in the Statistics Alerts view. You can use hyperlinks in one statistical analysis view to open another related statistical analysis view. Each view shows the statistic details for the APPLID at the interval time of the record, and a few intervals before and after, if the records are available.
For information about interpreting these statistics and using them to tune the CICS Storage Manager and Transaction Manager, see the related links to the CICS information.
