Accessing the database path

The initial panel on the Database path varies depending on the type of database system installed in your CICS® region; it may be DLI Summary, DB2 Interface, or DBCTL Interface. A horizontal menu of the remaining database-related topics appears at the start of each panel in the Databases path. To directly navigate to the other database options, enter one of the selection letters listed on the horizontal menu. Or enter the fast path D.C from any OMEGAMON for CICS (3270) panel.

In addition, you can find task-specific database statistics on any task detail display. These statistics consist of counts by type of request or call for each DLI or third-party database. To access a Task Detail display, zoom on a specific task from any task summary display. You can find task summaries on several options on the Tasks path (fast path T.), the Historical Transaction Overview display (fast path H.), the VSAM String and Buffer Waits display (fast path F.I), several options on the Databases path, and the Enqueue Resources Detail display (fast path B.H). Note that one of the options on the Tasks path is a summary of Tasks using DLI (fast path T.F.D).
