This panel is used to maintain SMF data sets that you want to run your Report Sets against. The SMF data sets contain the CICS® Monitoring Facility (CMF) performance class, exception class, and transaction resource class data, DB2® accounting records, MQ accounting, and MVS™ System Logger records.
Through the related Systems (and their Groups), CICS PA uses the specified SMF data sets in the generation of Report Set JCL. The Use count shows the number of Systems that use this File. The count ignores Exclude indicators.
Normal ISPF data set conventions apply. Fully qualified data set names must be enclosed in quotes, except if PROFILE NOPREFIX is set.
The generic or esoteric device type of the data set, such as 3390, SYSDA, or CART. This must represent a device type that is defined in the Eligible Device Table of the current processor as either TAPE or DASD. To select one from a list of possible Units, position the cursor on the UNIT field and press Prompt (F4).
UNIT can be specified without a VOLSER, in which case CICS PA will use the explicitly specified device type when generating JCL but will not include the UNIT parameter in the generated JCL. In this way the JCL generation process can be made aware of the device type of a data set that is yet to be cataloged, or is cataloged on another system. CICS PA uses the device type to determine tape unit affinity when generating JCL.
The File Sequence Number is only required for uncataloged tape data sets. It identifies the relative position of the data set on a tape volume. Omit, or code 0 or 1 to indicate the first data set on the tape volume.
The volume serial number of the data set. It is only required for uncataloged data sets. If a VOLSER is specified, then a UNIT must also be specified.
CICS PA appends a + sign to the VOLSER to indicate that the data set spans multiple volumes.
