Statistics utility program (DFHSTUP)

The statistics utility program, DFHSTUP, prepares and prints reports offline, using the CICS® statistics data recorded on the MVS™ system management facilities (SMF) SYS1.MANx data sets.

To enable the CICS statistics domain to record interval statistics on these SMF data sets, you must specify ON for the STATRCD system initialization parameter. The other statistics record types (unsolicited, requested and end-of-day) are written regardless of the setting of the STATRCD parameter. For information about the SMF data sets, see z/OS MVS System Management Facilities (SMF). For information about what CICS data is recorded on the SMF data sets, see Introduction to CICS statistics. For information about interpreting CICS statistics output in the DFHSTUP report, see CICS statistics in DSECTS and DFHSTUP report.

Always use the version of the DFHSTUP program from the same release of CICS as the data that it is to process. This section describes the CICS TS for z/OS®, Version 5.4 version of the DFHSTUP program, which you can use only for CICS TS for z/OS, Version 5.4 data.
