WAVV Requirement Form

Date: 5/2/2004 Requirement #: WAVV200448

Product Name: cics/ts Product Release# (or state “current”): current

Vendor Name: ibm

Title: (Paraphrase problem in a single statement)Need a way to determine CICs SIT parms after startup.

Detailed Problem Description: (Description of what you want changed - 400 character entry limit)

For debugging new installations or for problem determination at any time, it would be very convenient to determine after CICS/TS startup what cics tables suffixes and DHFSIT parameters were being used for this execution of CICS. This could be done by logging the information at CICS startup, or better yet, have a CICS transaction that could be run at anytime that would display the information.

Priority: (Select one: Urgent - High - Medium - Low) high

Requested Completion Date: (When? Examples: 3 months, 1 year, Next Release) next release next rel

Requirement Type: (Select one: Acceptability - Compatibility/Migration - Ease of Use - Feature/Function - Performance - Reliability/Availability/Serviceability - Packaging - Interoperability)

Ease of use

Business Justification: (Why? Non-technical business case description. Do not reword Detailed Problem Description from above. What are the benefits to be gained by your company, and the vendor and others? Quantify: run time, dollars, manpower, etc. Why should the vendor do this for the customer?)

Ease of problem determination, documentation

Solution: (Optional)(Desired/undesired elements Note: Making a suggestion may limit a vendors ability to deliver a solution)

Log on console at startup or collect/archive info to be display by online transaction at a later time. The suffix of the DFHSIT module is displayed, I like to be able to determine at the options contained within that SIT.

Impact: (Optional) (How will your company’s business be affected if a solution is not delivered?)

Quite often, it is not evident what the sit parameters are, or which DFHSIT module is being used if there are duplicate DFHSIT modules is separate sub-libraries.
