The predefined Automatic Initiate Descriptor workspace contains the following views:
The Automatic Initiate Descriptors workspace displays summary information on all the Automatic Initiate Descriptors in the CICS® region. It shows you the work waiting on terminals and remote systems.
This workspace allows bottlenecks involving terminals or printers to be identified. For example, a request to start a task connected to a printer shows as an Automatic Initiate Descriptor when the target printer is not available. If many Automatic Initiate Descriptors have accumulated, response time can be adversely affected because CICS attempts to start each Automatic Initiate Descriptor on every dispatch of the terminal control program.
You can end Automatic Initiate Descriptors in your CICS region when they accumulate because of a printer, terminal, or remote connection error. You can do this by using the Take Action view to purge the Automatic Initiate Descriptor or by using the CEKL transaction. Alternatively, you can select one of the definitions, right-click and a popup window lists all the options displayed in the Take Action window.
