System Definitions

Use System Definitions to define: You can specify SMF data sets for each system (CICS, DB2, MQ, Logger) or for each MVS™ system (image) where they run. In addition you can define groups of systems for reporting purposes, such as those systems that connect via IRC/MRO, ISC/APPC, or IPIC.
Your System Definitions are then used in the following ways:

For reporting, you can use either Personal System Definitions (Primary Menu option 1) or Shared System Definitions (Primary Menu option 6), but not both at the same time. Set Systems in the action bar to the definitions that you want to use for report. Typically your personal definitions are maintained by you and used by you for reporting.
