Some common duties:
Maintain CICS tables (usually via CEDA)
Maintain other CICS setup items (e.g. sizing CICS related datasets, tweaking startup parameters).
Create new CICS regions from scratch

One way to do this is as follows:
Look at any running CICS service (e.g. in SDSF) and identify from the JCL the full name of the SDFHLOAD dataset.
Attempt to rename this dataset in ISPF (e.g. 3.4/R) ...

The redefines in TSTCB1 has the effect of giving the pointer a value equal to the *contents* of the first 4 bytes of TEST-COB - i.e. "ABC ". This is not a valid address.
You want the pointer to conta ...

Just for info, although not relevant in this specific case, CICS/TS V3.1 (due out in about 6 months) directly supports outbound http requests.

Upgrading the mainframe hardware (but not the O/S or CICS) should not have any effect on the functioning of your in-house written CICS applications except to possibly make them run faster, (unless you ...

1/ If you have Compuware's FILEAID product, this can browse files which are open to CICS in some cases (if the file is defined with appropriate share options). Equivalent products from other vendors m ...

You don't want to use the data keys to keep track of screen postiions, you need to use the TSQ item numbers instead, since you can't address the TSQ by data key, only by item number. If you have for e ...

I would suggest that you are probably out of luck.
If you really want to pursue this, the SMF records are probably your only chance. But you are relying on the right records being collected, saved (a ...

As Kolusu mentioned,

will get a raw dump of the SIT which you can decode with the 'CICS data areas' manual. There are also various ways to get formatted SIT data:

My view of this is that it is not information that IBM give out in general; they just say "RMODE(ANY) can load the program either above or below the 16Mb line". What I believe they probably do in this ...

Powerhawk, I guess you were preparing your post while I was doing mine; anyhow see above and if you want to take it further, post the assmebler code generated as per Kolusu's comment about LIST.

Kolusu, I think you may have misread the question - what Powerhawk is saying is that the same ref mod without length executes much slower in CICS than batch, not that it's slower than ref mod with len ...
