the transaction was delayed while transaction control was under the CICS program
identified in the Name column.
Transaction execution can be delayed for one of the following reasons:
|
Service | The mean service time for the transaction during which control was under the CICS program identified in the Name column. Service time includes execution, suspend, and delay time. |

In this case, the offset is shown in the description field. This field is always displayed in red. |
Description | The CICS command description. If, as noted above, the CSECT name containing the EXEC CICS is different from the module name, the CICS command description is preceded by the hexadecimal offset of the command from the start of the CSECT. |
