Example output from the DFHATUP utility

Follow these example outputs of different levels of audit trail auditing from the DFHATUP audit utility.

CICS® writes records to an audit log in chronological order. Particularly on busy systems in a sysplex, records from different processes or from different activities in the same process are likely to become interleaved. In order to find out what has taken place during the execution of a specific process, you might want to select particular sets of records.

Audit trail examples shows the points at which records are written to an audit log, depending on the level of auditing specified for the relevant process-type. The example control statements in Figure 1 format all the records written to the audit log for the SALES1234567890 process (which is of the SALES process-type).
