This menu offers several combinations for the source of the report data and the baseline data that you want to compare:
For the combinations that involve HDBs, this menu allows you to specify the HDB Register that contains the HDBs you want to use.
Select the combination that you want. CICS PA displays the Run Transaction Profiling Report panel for that combination of report data and baseline data sources. The following figure shows the Run Transaction Profiling Report panel for option 1 SMF data against SMF Baseline.

This panel is similar to the panel for requesting a Transaction Profiling report in a Report Set, shown in Figure 2, except that you specify all of the details for the report on a single panel (there are no Report Set global options, such as Report Interval, to inherit), and rather than specifying the name of an HDB containing the baseline data, you specify system selection details to identify the appropriate SMF files. On the Run Transaction Profiling panel for option 3 HDB data against HDB Baseline, you specify HDB names for both the report data and the baseline data.
For details on specifying the options for the Transaction Profiling report, see Transaction Profiling report. To request the report, enter SUB on the command line.
