The CICS® IA Affinities
Reporter can be used to produce reports and definitions.
You can produce the following:
- A report of the affinities found in your CICS region. The commands reported are those
listed in Commands monitored for potential affinities.
- Definitions of the basic affinity transaction groups that correspond
to the report. The definitions of the basic affinity transaction groups
are suitable for input to the Builder.
You can run the Affinities Reporter against either of the following:
- The Affinities database using the CIUAFFRD job.
- The VSAM affinity data files using the CIUAFFRP job. This option
is useful if you do not have DB2®.
The CIUAFFRD and CIUAFFRP jobs produce the same kinds of output.
If the Affinities database and the VSAM files contain the same affinity
data, the output from the jobs is identical.
For information about interpreting the report output by the Affinities
Reporter, see Running the affinity report.
