Conditions: ACTIVITYERR, INVREQ, IOERR, NOTAUTH

Description

STARTBROWSE EVENT initializes a browse token which can be used to identify each event (including each sub-event and system event) that is within the scope of a specified BTS activity. If you do not specify an activity, events within the scope of the current activity are browsed.

A browse started by STARTBROWSE EVENT returns:
  • Atomic events. An atomic event returned on this command may or may not be included in the predicate of a composite event—that is, it may or may not be a sub-event.
  • Composite events.
  • System events.

Options

ACTIVITYID(data-value)
specifies the identifier (1–52 characters) of the activity whose events are to be browsed.

If you omit this option, events known to the current activity are browsed.

BROWSETOKEN(data-area)
specifies a fullword binary data area, into which CICS® will place the browse token.
