Writing statistics collection and analysis programs

You can customize the collection and analysis of CICS® statistics by writing your own statistics collection and analysis programs.

When writing a statistics collection and analysis program, you must ensure that CICS always receives control in primary-space translation mode. The original contents of all access registers must be restored, and all general purpose registers must be restored (except for those which provide return codes or linkage information). For information about translation modes, see IBM® z/Architecture Principles of Operation.
