CEMT INQUIRE AUXTRACE
Program(
value
)
displays the name of the program that controls the
autoinstall process. This is either the CICS-supplied
default autoinstall program, DFHZATDX, or a
user-written program.
Note: You can reset this value by overtyping it with a
different value.
CEMT INQUIRE AUXTRACE
Function: Retrieve information about the status of
auxiliary trace.
Description: Auxiliary trace entries are made to a pair of
CICS-controlled BSAM data sets, ‘A’ and ‘B’.
INQUIRE AUXTRACE tells you:
Whether the auxiliary trace data set is open or closed
Which of the auxiliary trace data sets is active, Cur(A) or
Cur(B)
Whether an auxiliary trace is in progress (started) or not
(stopped).
You can start, stop, or pause tracing, and specify that
automatic switching of the auxiliary data set is to occur when
needed. You can use the SWITCH option to change the data
set.
Instead of using the SET command, you can overtype your
changes on the INQUIRE screen after tabbing to the
appropriate field (see “Overtyping a display” on page 47).
For information on using auxiliary tracing, see the
CICS
Problem Determination Guide
. See also the description of the
CETR transaction, Chapter 16, “CETR—trace control” on
page 221.
Input: Press the Clear key and type CEMT INQUIRE
AUXTRACE (the minimum abbreviation is CEMT I AUX).
You will get a display screen, a sample of which is shown
below. If you want to change any of the values shown, you
can then tab to the highlighted or blank fields and overtype
them as required.

Note: There are blank fields on the screen where a value
does not apply or is ‘negative’; that is, the value
begins with ‘No’. To modify these fields, locate them
by tabbing (they appear in the same sequence as in
the expanded format), and overtype with input valid
for that field. You may find it more convenient to use
the expanded format when setting one of these
values, (negating is easier because you are
overtyping a displayed field with its negative causing
the result to become non-displayed).
If you place the cursor against the result and press ENTER,
CICS displays an expanded format as shown in Figure 51 on
page 56.
