Statistics HDB Reporting

You can request to run reports against your Statistics HDB from either: option 4 Report from the Historical Database Menu; or option 7 Statistics from the Primary Option Menu, and then option 3 Historical Databases.... A Statistics HDB contains data records from CICS® Statistics class SMF records and CICS Transaction Gateway statistics SMF records.

There are two types of Statistics HDB report:

Online reports
Rather than generating a batch report, you view Statistics HDB data interactively using the CICS PA dialog. For details, see Statistics reporting using the dialog.
Statistics Alert HDB reports
These batch reports alert you when data records in a Statistics HDB meet conditions that you have specified in a Statistics Alert definition. For details, see Statistics Alert HDB Reporting.
