Sample library
The CICS PA Sample Library (SCPASAMP) contains sample members to demonstrate CICS PA features, such as JCL to generate most of the CICS PA reports and extracts.
Member Name | Description |
---|---|
CPAAOR | Runs the Performance List and Summary reports for an AOR (Application-Owning Region). |
CPACTGRP | Runs the CICS® Transaction Gateway Statistics Activity Summary and Usage and Capacity reports. |
CPADBCTL | Runs the Performance List and Summary reports for IMS™ (DBCTL). |
CPADB2 | Runs the DB2® reports (list, short summary, long summary). |
CPADB2# | Runs the Performance List and Summary reports for a region using DB2. |
CPADB2AD | Runs the DB2 utility to delete a row from the Statistics Alerts DB2 table. |
CPADB2HK | Runs the DB2 utility to delete DB2 table rows based on relative date and time. |
CPADB2PD | Runs the DB2 utility to delete a block of rows from the Performance Summary table using start and end date and time. |
CPADB2SD | Runs the DB2 utility to delete all rows in the Dispatcher TCB Modes DB2 table for a specific TCB Mode Name and APPLID. |
CPAFOR | Runs the Performance List and Summary reports for an FOR (File-Owning Region). |
CPAHDB | Runs the SMF Dump process, followed by Take-up, HDB Load,
and selected reports. By combining take-up, HDB load and reporting
into a single job step, all CICS PA functions
can be performed by a single pass of the SMF data. For more information on this process, see Take-up from SMF File. |
CPALGDDL | Runs the DDL to define a DB2 table for the system logger extract data. |
CPALGLOD | Runs the DB2 Load Utility statements to load the system logger extract data into a predefined DB2 table. |
CPALOGR | Runs the System Logger reports (list and summary). |
CPALSTSU | Runs the Performance List report specifying file CPU service unit conversion factor. |
CPAMQ | Runs the WebSphere® MQ List and Summary reports for MQ Accounting (SMF 116) Classes 1 and 3. |

CPAOMEGA | Runs the OMEGAMON® List
and Summary reports for all supported DBMS types.
|
CPAPALST | Runs the Performance Alerts list report:
|
CPAPASUM | Runs the Performance Alerts summary report:
|
CPAPAXTL | Runs the Performance Alerts list extract using a FORM to generate the FIELDS operand. SEVERITY(ALL) indicates that all transactions will be included in the extract. |
CPAPAXTS | Runs the Performance Alerts summary extract using a Form to generate the FIELDS operand. SEVERITY(ELIGIBLE) indicates that only transactions that are eligible for alert processing are reported. Eligible transactions are those that have field values that match the resource values defined in the alert definition. All eligible transactions with and without alerts are reported. |
CPAPCBTS | Runs the BTS (CICS Business Transaction services) report. |
CPAPEXP | Runs the Performance data extract. |
CPAPLIST | Runs the Performance List report with default FIELDS settings. |
CPAPLSFC | Runs the Performance List and Summary reports, tailored to present file control information. |
CPAPLSPC | Runs the Performance List and Summary reports, tailored to present program control information. |
CPAPLSTX | Runs the Performance List extended report with default FIELDS settings. |
CPAPROFH | Runs the Transaction Profiling report comparing SMF report data against HDB baseline data. |
CPAPROFS | Runs the Transaction Profiling report comparing SMF report data against SMF baseline data. |
CPAPSUM | Runs the Performance Summary report with default FIELDS settings and sorted by Transaction ID and User ID. |
CPAPTOT | Runs the Performance Totals report with default FIELDS settings. |
CPAPTRGP | Runs the Transaction Group report. |
CPAPWAIT | Runs the Performance Wait Analysis report. |
CPAPWLM | Runs the Workload Activity reports (list, summary by service class, and summary by report class). |
CPAPXSYS | Runs the Cross-System report and extract. The second job step (STEP2) runs the Performance List report against the extract created in the first job step. |

CPASAHDB | Runs the Statistics HDB Alert report in various sort orders. |
CPASASMF | Runs the Statistics Alert report (from SMF data) in various sort orders. |
CPASPSM1 | Uses sysout2pdf, to convert the Performance Summary report to PDF and save file in a z/OS® UNIX directory. |
CPASPSM2 | Uses sysout2pdf, to convert a Performance Summary report containing many fields to a PDF with a custom page size. The report is sent as PDF and text attachments by email. |
CPASPWT1 | Uses sysout2pdf, to convert a Wait Analysis report to PDF, using a wait analysis report-specific filter that creates a bookmark for each transaction code. The report is sent as PDF and text attachments by e-mail. |
CPASTLST | Runs the Statistics List report. |

CPASUREX | REXX used to calculate the service unit conversion factor for the current LPAR. |
CPATOD | Runs the Performance Summary report analyzing transaction activity by Time of Day. |
CPATOR | Runs the Performance List and Summary reports for a TOR (Terminal-Owning Region). |
CPATRSUM | Runs the tiered Performance Summary reports. |
CPATRU | Runs the Transaction Resource Usage reports (list and summary) for files and temporary storage. |

CICS PA has a powerful command language to request reports. This language allows you to tailor your report requests to address the many aspects of measuring CICS performance. The JCL samples demonstrate reporting for some of the more common CICS facilities.
In addition, the CICS PA dialog provides a comprehensive set of sample report forms for formatting your reports and extracts. See Table 1 for the list of sample report forms provided by CICS PA.
