Sysview: Cancel/Reqabort a DATACOM task, based upon thresholds

[PETER DE WOLF]

Within CICS one can set tresholds via CTHRESH, based upon many parameters.

Within DATACOM we have similar occasions where we need to perform a REQABORT of a task, based upon e.g. runtime.
We would like to have things automated, like with CTHRESH.
Does the Sysview/Datacom component have the possibility to set thresholds, so that tasks can be cancelled/reqabort based on thresholds ?

[Douglas Miller]

Peter,
No.  The SYSVIEW Datacom option only gathers data real-time and displays it.  There is no periodic data collection going on in the background like you have for CICS, MQ, IMS, etc., and thus no built-in thresholding is possible.  The only option today would be to make use of the SYSVIEW REXX API from CA GSS or an automation product like CA OPS/MVS, where you could periodically interrogate the DCTASKS display and invoke REQABORT based on the data.
