Start-of-run record

When CICS® connects to a general log, it writes a start-of-run record to it as the first record for this run of CICS. This record comprises a record header (with the same format as that for any general log journal record) followed by a start-of-run body.

The format of the start-of-run record is shown in Figure 1.

This fields in this picture are described in the list that follows. — Figure 1. Format of the start-of-run record

SOR_CICS_RELEASE: 4-byte CICS release.
SOR_SPECIFIC_APPLID: 8-byte CICS applid.

For a start-of-run record, CICS puts the domain identifier LG (for logger) in the GLRH_REC_COMPID field of the record header.
