CICLX4 - Daily CICS Storage Statistics Report

The Daily CICS Storage Statistics Report is similar to the Storage reports produced by IBM CICS utility DFHSTUP.
micsrm140cd
The Daily CICS Storage Statistics Report output contains three report sections, global storage statistics, Dynamic Storage Areas, and DSA task subpools.
The global storage statistics contain current storage and memory allocations and usage.
The Dynamic Storage Area section is divided into three sets, below the line storage, above the line, and above the bar. This contains metrics such as current sizes, percent usage, GETMAIN/FREEMAIN requests, short on storage metrics, and more.
The MVS Storage section contains information about the use of user region (24-bit) and extended user region (31-bit) storage. It contains information on current usage and helps track fluctuations in storage usage over time, verify the values set for MVS SAS thresholds, and identify and avoid SOS conditions.
The Task Subpools section contains GETMAIN/FREEMAIN requests, and page storage for User and CICS access types to the DSA storage pools.
Report format
This inquiry produces a tabular report which provides a detailed set of Dynamic Storage Area (DSA) related metrics for each CICS region.

Execution-time parameters
UNIT
Select one or more
MICS database
units by entering the data base IDs. Enter multiple IDs with a blank following each ID value.
CYCLE
(Optional) Define
MICS
input file cycle range.
For this inquiry, the default is the 01 cycle.
SYSID
(Optional) Specify the SYSID to be reported. If no value is specified, the value *ALL is used. It causes all SYSIDs found in input to be summarized together.
CICSID
(Optional) Specify the CICSID to be reported. If no value is specified, the value *ALL is used which causes all CICSIDs found in input to be summarized together.
DATE
(Optional) Enter the date to be reported in ddmmmyy format.
For this inquiry, the default is the contents of the 01 cycle.
ZONE
(Optional) Select one or more
MICS
time zones. Valid values are numbers 1 through 9.
User exits
If the MICF execution-time parameters are insufficient to select the data you need, you can invoke one of the following global exits to further manipulate the input file. Also, you can override the global exit definitions in MICF using independent source statements. For detailed information about coding the exits,CICS Changing Report Parameters.
The global exits are defined by macros in the source module CICRPTGL in sharedprefix.MICS.SOURCE. The following exits are available to this inquiry:
%GCIC
Select CICSIDs for report.
%GCNTR
Assign value to the variable CENTER which defines the logical grouping of SYSIDs. CENTER is set to SYSID by default.
%GSYS
Select SYSIDs for report.
