The CICSplex Exit Program Analysis attribute groups returns information about a global user exit (GLUE) or a task-related user exit (TRUE). This information is retrieved using the EXEC CICS INQUIRE EXITPROGRAM command.
API Type Indicates which APIs the task-related user exit program uses. Values are:
CICS Region Name Indicates the job name or modify ID of the CICS region being monitored. Each CICS region in a z/OS operating system has a unique name. This name is an alphanumeric string, with a maximum of eight characters, and case-sensitive. CICS region names are always in uppercase characters.
Concurrency Status Indicates the concurrency status of the task-related user exit program, as specified by the latest ENABLE command for this program. Values are:
Connection Status Indicates the state of the connection between the exit and the external resource manager that it supports. CONNECTST enables you to determine whether the specified exit has connected to its resource manager, so that CICS tasks can safely issue API requests to the resource manager. Values are:
EDF Format Status Indicates that the FORMATEDF option is enabled for the exit. FORMATEDF causes extra invocations of the exit for tasks executed under EDF, to format output screens and interpret input, and applies only to task-related user exits. Values are:
Entry Point Indicates the entry address of the user exit.
Exit Program Name Is the name of the current exit program.
Exit Point Name Is the identifier of an exit point associated with the exit.
Exit Qualifier Is the Task Related User Exit SPI qualifier assigned by CICS.
Global Exit Points Is the number of global user exit points at which the exit is enabled.
Global Workarea Owner Is the exit that owns the global workarea associated with the current exit.
Global Workarea Length Is the length of the global workarea for the exit.
GWA Use Count Indicates the total number of user exits that are using the global workarea owned by this exit. This count includes the owning exit program. A zero is returned if the exit is not the owner.
In-Doubt Wait Status indicates whether the task-related user exit is enabled with the INDOUBTWAIT keyword. Values are:
Newcopy Count Is the number of times that the Program has been Newcopied.
Location Indicates the exit location of the program. Values are:
Origin Node Is the combination of z/OS System ID (SMFID) and CICS region name. The value format is an alphanumeric string, maximum 32 bytes, and case-sensitive.
When a situation is true, the system compares the origin node name in the attribute to the names of managed systems assigned to the item. If the origin node name matches the name of a managed system, the status of the item changes accordingly. If the names of the origin node and the managed systems do not match, the status of the item remains unchanged.
Program Size Is the size in bytes of the Exit Program.
Purge Status Indicates whether the task-related user exit is enabled with the PURGEABLE keyword. Values are:
RPL Offset Is the offset into the RPL DD of the owning PDS.
Shutdown Status Indicates whether the SHUTDOWN option is enabled for the exit. SHUTDOWN causes invocation during CICS shutdown, and applies only to task-related user exits. Values are:
SPI Enablement Indicates whether the task-related user exit is enabled for SPI calls. Values are:
Start Status Identifies whether the exit is available for execution. Values are:
System ID Indicates the four-character name that uniquely identifies an active z/OS operating system within a given CICSplex. The value format is an alphanumeric string, maximum 4 characters, and case-sensitive. z/OS System IDs are always in uppercase characters.
TASKSTART Status Indicateswhether the TASKSTART option is enabled for the exit. TASKSTART causes CICS to invoke the exit at the start and end of every task; it applies only to task-related user exits. Values are:
Task Workarea Length Indicates the length of the local (task-related) workarea for the exit. Local workareas apply only to task-related user exits. A zero is returned if this is a global user exit.
Use Count Is the number of times the exit program has been invoked.
