DBCTL session termination statistics

DBCTL statistics are of the unsolicited type only. They appear on a separate report to the other types of CICS® statistics.

The DBCTL statistics exit DFHDBSTX is invoked by the CICS adapter (DFHDBAT), and CICS statistics information is collected by the statistics domain whenever DBCTL is disconnected as a result of:
  • An orderly or immediate disconnection of the DBCTL using the menu transaction CDBC
  • An orderly termination of CICS.
Note: If there is an immediate shutdown or abend of CICS, the latest CICS-DBCTL session statistics are lost. The function of DFHDBSTX is to invoke the statistics domain supplying the data that has been returned from the database resource adapter (DRA) relating to the individual CICS-DBCTL session.

CICS termination statistics that contain the number of DL/I calls by type, issued against each DL/I database, are not produced by CICS in the DBCTL environment. DBCTL produces this type of information.
