Trace utility print program (DFHTU700)

There are a number of destinations for CICS® region trace data:
  1. A table in main storage, when you specify INTTR=ON and SYSTR=ON as system initialization parameters
  2. The CICS auxiliary trace data sets, when you specify AUXTR=ON and SYSTR=ON as system initialization parameters
  3. The MVS™ generalized trace facility (GTF) data sets, when you specify GTFTR=ON and SYSTR=ON as system initialization parameters.
  4. The JVM server trace file in z/OS® Unix System Services

You can also obtain trace entries at these destinations while CICS is running, by means of the CETR trace transaction or the equivalent EXEC CICS SET commands.

This section describes how you can print the CICS region trace data from:
  • The CICS auxiliary trace data sets, using the CICS trace utility program, DFHTU700.
  • The GTF data sets, using a CICS-supplied routine with the MVS interactive problem control system (IPCS).
