Registered view

Registered view shows you a list of auxiliary trace data sets that are registered in your C\Prof checkpoint data set.

Opening registered auxiliary trace data sets for ad hoc analysis

To analyze auxiliary trace data sets using the C\Prof ISPF dialog, complete the following steps:

1. On the C\Prof primary option menu, select option 3 Trace.

2. Use the View menu item on the action bar to select option 2 Registered auxiliary trace data sets.

3. To open a single data set, enter line action S. To open multiple data sets at once into a merged view, enter line action SS on the first and last data sets to select a block, or select each one individually using line action S. This is useful if you are investigating problems that span multiple CICS regions in a CICSplex.
