WebSphere MQ report
The WebSphere® MQ report processes WebSphere MQ SMF accounting (SMF 116) records to produce a detailed view of WebSphere MQ usage by your CICS® systems.
- Transactions
- WebSphere MQ Queues that were referenced
- WebSphere MQ global (not Transaction-specific or Queue-specific) statistics
- WebSphere Queue-specific commands issued by Transaction

********************************* End of list *********************************
This panel displays the list of WebSphere MQ reports in this Report Set. You can select (edit), delete, or include/exclude any report, insert new ones, or rearrange them (move/copy).
- System Selection
- System Selection identifies the MQ Subsystems and associated SMF files that you want to report against. MQ System Selection can be specified here or on the WebSphere MQ Report panel. For details, see the description of this option following the next figure.
- Output
- CICS PA provides a default Report Output DDname in the format MQ00nnnn where nnnn is 0001-9999.
The line actions are the same as on similar Reports list panels. See Performance List report.

Use this panel to specify report options and record selection criteria for the WebSphere MQ report. The only mandatory option is the Report Output DDname. You can let the other options default.
- MQ System Selection
- System Selection identifies the MQ Subsystems and associated SMF
files that you want to report against. Any combination of MQ SSID,
Image, or Group can be specified but must be defined in System Definitions.
You can use Prompt (F4) to select from a list. To link directly
to System Definitions, select Systems in the action bar. Specify either:
- An MQ SSID.
- An MQ SSID for a particular Image. This identifies a particular MQ Subsystem when there is more than one with the same ID.
- An Image. CICS PA will report on all MQ systems running on this Image using the SMF files defined for the Image.
- An MQ SSID and Image combination plus a Group. This is useful to uniquely identify a system when there is more than one of the same name defined in System Definitions.
- A Group alone. CICS PA will report on all MQ systems in the Group to produce a single consolidated report.
CICS PA uses the System Selection in JCL generation to build the SSID(ssid1,ssid2,ssid3,...) and INput(SMFIN001,SMFIN002,SMFIN003,...) operands, and corresponding //SMFINnnn DD statements.
- Report Output DDname
- The ddname for the report output which CICS PA uses
when generating the JCL to run the Report Set. The ddname is mandatory
and should be unique to separate the output of multiple reports.
CICS PA assigns a default ddname MQ00nnnn where nnnn is a sequential number 0001-9999 to ensure each report has a unique ddname.
This option generates the OUTPUT(ddname) operand.
- Print Lines per Page
- The maximum number of lines, including headings, to print on each
page of the report. Valid values are from 1 to 255. The default is 60.
The global value applies to all reports. If a value is specified on this report panel, the report value takes precedence over the global for this report only.
CICS PA JCL generation translates this field to the LINECount(nnn) operand.
- Reports Required
- Enter / to select the reports you want produced.
- Select List to request the WebSphere MQ List report. This selection generates the LIST operand.
- Select Summary to request the WebSphere MQ Summary report. This selection generates the SUMMARY operand and is the default.
- Process Accounting Class Records
- Select the type of MQ accounting data to process. Select either:
- Class 1 to request that the reports process MQ Class 1 records only. This is the default. This selection generates the CLASS1 operand.
- Class 3 to request that the reports process MQ Class 3 records only. This selection generates the CLASS3 operand.
- Sort Summary by
- Specify the required sorting sequence of the Summary report. You
can order the Summary report by the following values:
- Transaction ID. This generates the SORT(TRAN) operand and is the default.
- WebSphere Queue name. This generates the SORT(QUEUE) operand.
- Transaction ID, then Queue name. This generates the SORT(TRAN,QUEUE) operand.
- Queue name, then Transaction ID. This generates the SORT(QUEUE,TRAN) operand.
- Report Filter
- Specify a Queue name to select records for a particular WebSphere MQ queue name. You
can specify a pattern such as CICSMQ* to include more than one queue
name. The queue name is case-sensitive.
This option generates the QNAME(name) operand.
- Title
- Title of the report. Specify up to 128 characters of text to describe
the report. CICS PA concatenates
the two lines of 64 exactly as entered to make one line which prints
at the top of each page of the report below the heading. The default
is blank (no title).
This option generates the TITLE1('left-half') and TITLE2('right-half') operands.
- Performance Selection Criteria
- The
fields that can be specified in Selection Criteria for filtering MQ
accounting (SMF 116) records are:
- APPLID
- CICS APPLID
- TRAN
- CICS Transaction ID
- TASKNO
- CICS Task ID
- START
- MQ Thread Begin Time
- STOP
- MQ Thread End Time
- ACTIVE
- MQ Thread Begin-End Time
Line Actions:- ⁄
- Display the menu of line actions.
- S
- Display the subpanel where Selection Criteria can be specified for this report. For details, see Specifying Selection Criteria.
- A
- Activate the Selection Criteria so they are generated for this report when the Report Set is submitted. Selection Criteria can only be activated if one or more Select Statements are specified and not all are excluded. An asterisk (*) indicates they are active.
- D
- Deactivate the Selection Criteria. Any you have specified here will not be used.
