Destination control table
The Destination Control Table (DCT) contains entries for extrapartition and intrapartition transient data queues (TDQUEUE or Dest IDs).
Extrapartition queues provide access to sequential files outside of the CICS® region. Intrapartition queues provide access to sequential queues within the CICS region and are often used with Automatic Transaction Initiation (ATI) to trigger transactions on another terminal.
To display destination control table entry attributes, select the DCT option (D) on the CICS path or enter fast path C.D from any panel.

================================================================================To select destinations with a specific attribute, place the cursor on the line describing the attribute and press PF11. To select a specific destination, you can enter ID=queuename after DCT.
TABL DCT,ID=DFH* For a DCT entry in dump format, enter DUMP after queuename:
TABL DCT,ID=queuename DUMP To select destinations with several attributes, enter SEL= followed by a list of attributes. This is the syntax:
TABL DCT,SEL=(attr1,attr2,.....attrn) - ID=DFH*
- Specifies queuenames beginning with DFH.
- ID=*YZ
- Specifies queuenames ending with YZ.
- ID=A*B*
- Specifies queuenames beginning with A and having a B anywhere but at the end of the name.
If you zoom on the All Table Entries field, the DCT Summary panel is displayed:

===============================================================================- Dest ID
- Transient data queue name.
- Dest Type
- Whether this is an intrapartition, extrapartition, indirect, or remote queue.
- Dest Status
- Whether this destination is OPEN, ENABLED, OPIP (Open in Progress), or CLIP (Close in Progress).
- Indirect Queue
- Final destination name for indirect queues.
- ATI Facility
- Terminal or destination ID for automatic transaction initiation.
- ATI Tran ID
- Transaction ID for automatic transaction initiation.
- Trigger Level
- Transient data trigger level for automatic transaction initiation.
To display detailed information on a particular Dest ID (queue name), place the cursor on that line and press PF11.
The detailed information displayed depends on the type of queue. For an extrapartition queue entry, the following panel is displayed:
