Enhancements to the CICS® IA Version 5.5 plug-in.
The messages displayed in the 'Used By' view of the CICS IA Version 5.5 (plug-in), are more detailed and meaningful, for better understanding of the application flow and resource interdependency. For more information, see Used By view.
CICS IA Version 5.5 provides a better view of the Resource Usage Visualization with an updated Expand and Collapse feature, along with a step-by-step discovery mechanism to display the connections between transactions and programs, or between CICS®, DB2®, IMS™, or WebSphere® MQ resources. For more information, see Resource Usage Visualization view and Resource Connections view.
In CICS IA Version 5.5, the 'User Command Flow' section of the IA Navigation view (that displayed only the Timestamps of the transactions triggered by a User ID previously) additionally shows the triggered Transaction ID, beside each Timestamp and Task-ID, for a quicker analysis by users without having to navigate to the execution view of each task. For more information, see User Command Flow.
