The CICS adapter trace
The CICS adapter writes entries to the CICS trace if your trace number is set to a value in the range 0 through 199 (decimal), and if either:
- CICS user tracing is enabled, or
- CICS internal/auxiliary trace is enabled
We can enable CICS tracing in one of two ways:
- Dynamically, using the CICS-supplied transaction CETR
- By ensuring that the USERTR parameter in the CICS system initialization table (SIT) is set to YES
For more information about enabling CICS trace, see the CICS Problem Determination Guide.
The CICS trace entry originating from the CICS adapter has a value AP0000, where 000 is the hexadecimal equivalent of the decimal value of the CICS adapter trace number you specified.
The trace entries are shown in Appendix C. CICS adapter trace entries.
