This secondary window opens for each selected MVS log stream. If errors were found for the log stream, a message for each error is shown.

Place an S in the column next to each error message for which you require more information. A secondary window opens for each selected error and contains a detailed description of the error with a reference to the relevant message in CICS VR Messages and abend codesCICS VR Messages and Problem Determination.

This secondary window reflects information from the CICS VR RCDS about processing an MVS log stream with the CICS VR log stream copy utility ran without the cursor control tool. If you selected an MVS log stream that was not copied by the CICS VR log stream copy utility, the details in this secondary window do not contain any data. If you have selected an MVS log stream that was copied by the CICS VR log stream copy utility with the use of the cursor control tool, only the Last copy time field contains data.

To obtain detailed help information, move the cursor to a field and press F1.

For each log stream copy that you have selected, the CICS VR SAM copy details list secondary window opens.
