Event:
MPNCB Active device counter update
VIT processing module:
ISTRACCI
Control is returned to:
Modules invoking the INTRACE macro that caused the record to be produced.
This trace record is written when a module is about to update an active device counter in MPNCB. It records the current Read and Write device counters before the change takes place.
  • DEVD is generated for a counter decrement.
  • DEVI is generated for a counter increment.

See z/OS® Communications Server: SNA Data Areas Volume 1 for a description of the NCB fields.

For record types with suffix I,X, or T the CIO events are also captured within the NCB (pointed to by NCBCIOMV). The NCB trace table is mapped by NCBCIOAR.
