Running the Collector

You run the CICS® IA Collector to look for instances of program commands that might cause resource dependencies or transaction affinities.

The CICS and non-CICS commands that the Collector can monitor are listed in Dependency-related commands.

You can run the Collector either at a CICS 3270-type terminal (through interactive screens or single-line commands), from a console, or from an application program. This section primarily describes how to use the Collector through the interactive screens at a CICS terminal, but also gives equivalent commands to use at a terminal, at a console, or in an application program.

For an overview of the Collector, see The Collector component.
