Generating a performance dictionary record using DFHMNDUP

A performance dictionary record holds specific information about each data field in a performance data record. It derives its information from predefined CICS® fields, and from any user-defined fields in the MCT specified for the CICS run.

1. The dictionary record is written to a data set specified on a DD statement with a ddname of SYSUT4. You must put this data set in front of any data sets you are processing and which contain performance data.
2. Specify the appropriate parameters in the SYSIN data set to control the DFHMNDUP program, so that it can generate the correct dictionary record for the performance data you are processing. The values that you specify are used to construct the fields in the SMF Header and Product section.
   The relationship of DFHMNDUP SYSIN parameters to SMF fields is shown in Table 1.

   Table 1. Relationship of DFHMNDUP SYSIN parameters to SMF fields

   SYSIN PARM	SMF Dsect field	Meaning
   DATE	SMFMNDTE	Date record moved
   GAPPLID	SMFMNPRN	Product name (Generic APPLID)
   JOBDATE	SMFMNRSD	Job execution date
   JOBNAME	SMFMNJBN	Jobname of CICS job
   JOBTIME	SMFMNRST	Job execution time
   SAPPLID	SMFMNSPN	Specific APPLID
   SYSID	SMFMNSID	System identification
   TIME	SMFMNTME	Time record moved
   UPPERCASE	n/a	Uppercase output
   USERID	SMFMNUIF	User identification

   You can enter each parameter on a separate line, with the parameter keyword starting in column one. Alternatively, you can enter all of the parameters on a single line, starting in column one, with each parameter separated by a comma. If your CICS used a default MCT, you can enter the MCT parameter as ‘MCT=NO’, ‘MCT=’, or ‘MCT=,‘.For a description of these parameters, see Parameters for the DFHMNDUP program.
