Chapter 4. Running the Scanner

This chapter describes how to run the Scanner that scans load modules for instances of API commands that could cause inter-transaction affinity and transaction-system affinity.

You can run the Scanner to produce either a summary report and module list to identify suspect modules or a detailed report of modules that contain possible affinity-causing EXEC CICS commands or MVS POST calls.

The recommended way to use the Scanner is by:

vªCreating a summary reportº

vªCreating a detailed reportº on page 27

Creating a summary report

You can request a summary report from the Scanner by editing and running the job CAUJCLLS. This job can also output a list of modules with potential transaction affinities, for input to the CAUJCLLD job for more detailed reporting.

Before running the CAUJCLLS job, change the following as appropriate:

vThe JOB accounting parameters

vThe PARM statement:

PARM=©$SUMMARY[,DETAILMODS]©

where:

$SUMMARY

Speci®es that a summary scan (and report) is required for the entire library, except for CICS modules, CICS tables, and those modules that cannot be loaded (due to some error).

DETAILMODS

Speci®es that the names of those modules containing at least one possible affinity-causing EXEC CICS command or MVS POST command are to be written to the sequential ®le de®ned by the AFFMOD DD statement. This ®le may be used to restrict a subsequent detailed report, by specifying it on the DETAIL DD statement of a detailed report run of the Scanner.

vThe STEPLIB DD statement

Specify the name of the Transaction Affinities Utility load library where you have installed the Scanner program, CAULMS.

vThe INPUT DD statement

Specify the name of the load library to be scanned.

vThe SYSPRINT DD statement

Specify the destination for the summary report.
