CICSplex IPConnection Analysis attribute group

The CICSplex IP Connections Analysis table view helps you determine the current usage of the defined IP connections and evaluate if the definitions are sufficient to support the current workload without introducing unwanted bottlenecks.

Allocation Queue Limit The maximum number of requests that originate in this region that can be queued.

CICS Region Jobname 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.

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.

CICS Region VTAM Applid Is the specific APPLID of the local region.

CICS Region VTAM Generic Applid Is the generic APPLID of the local region.

Connected System Network ID Is the network ID of the connected region.

Connected System VTAM Applid Is the APPLID of the connected system.

Connection Name Is the defined name of this connection.

Connection Status Displays whether the connection is available for use (INService) and if communications have been established (ACQuired).

Number of Receive Sessions Defined Is the number of sessions defined to receive a request.

Number of Receive Sessions In Use Is the number of receive sessions currently in use.

Number of Send Sessions Defined Is the total number of send sessions that are currently defined and can be allocated from this region.

Number of Send Sessions In Use Is the number of send sessions currently in use that were allocated from this region.

Number of Sessions Defined Is the total number of sessions that are defined.

Number of Sessions In Use Is the total number of sessions that are currently active.

Origin Node 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.

Percent of Receive Sessions In Use Is the percentage of available sessions that can receive a request that are currently in use.

Percent of Send Sessions In Use Is the percentage of available sessions for allocation within this region that are currently in use.

Percent of Sessions In Use Is the percentage of available sessions that are currently active.

Receive Session Allocate Count Is the number of received session allocations since the statistics were reset.

Receive Session Allocation Rate Is the number of receive session allocations per minute.

Send Session Allocate Count Is the number of send session allocations since the statistics were reset.

Send Session Allocation Rate Is the number of send session allocations per minute.

System ID Indicates the 4-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.

Tasks Queued to this Connected System Is the number of tasks that are queued waiting for a session.

TCPIP Service Name Is the name of the TCP/IP service that receives requests for this connection.
