The MONACTV view shows information about monitor definitions installed in CICS® systems known to the CICSplex identified as the current context. An example of how to use this view can be found in Finding out which resources are being monitored in a CICS system.
mondef
Is the specific or generic name of
a monitor definition or * for all monitor definitions.
ACTIVE|PENDING
Limits the view to either
active or pending definitions. If you omit this parameter, monitor definitions
are included in the view regardless of their status.
If you do not specify parameters, the view includes information about all monitor definitions within the current context and scope.
Figure 78 is an example of the MONACTV view.

When you specify a sample rate for the Region, Global, or DB2/DBCTL resource type in a monitor specification, CICSPlex® SM automatically creates a corresponding monitor definition. The first few monitor definitions shown in Figure 78 are examples of these monitor definitions. Notice that:
Monitor definitions created by CICSPlex SM are automatically installed when a CICS system using the associated specification is started. You cannot update or remove these monitor definitions.
Table 53 shows the action commands you can issue from the MONACTV view.
Primary command | Line command | Description |
---|---|---|
DEActivate
mondef sysname |
DEA | Deactivates an ACTIVE monitor definition for which a time period is defined; the status of the definition changes to PENDING. |
DiSCard
mondef sysname |
DSC | Discards an ACTIVE or PENDING monitor definition from the CICS system in which it is installed. |

Def Name | MONDEF | Detailed description of the specified monitor definition. |
Note:
This hyperlink field is not valid for monitor definitions created by CICSPlex SM,
which have names beginning with an asterisk (*); there is no entry
for them in the MONDEF view. |
When a monitor definition is installed, its status (as illustrated by the Status field in Figure 78) is either:
The definition is active during the time period identified in the Period field. (When this field is blank, the monitor definition is to be active as long as the CICS system in which it is installed is running.)
To change the status of an installed monitor definition, type either the DEA or DSC action command in the line command field next to the name of the definition.
Press Enter. A confirmation panel is displayed. Press Enter again to deactivate or discard the monitor definition.
