Hi Gurus,

Is there any document on understanding the CICS trace entries ?.

Thanks,
Ravikumar.

The CICS(R) utility program, DFHTU640, extracts all or selected trace entries from the A or B auxiliary trace data set, and formats and prints the data. You specify the type of entries to be processed by this program on trace selection parameters supplied.

The utility is explained here

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/cicsts/v3r1/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.cics.ts31.doc/dfha6/dfha68m.htm

Check this link for documentation of CICS TRACE Entries

http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/FINDBOOK?filter=Cics+Trace+Entries

Hope this helps...

Cheers

Kolusu
