In order to support the CORE=LASTSQL command for CA InterTest for CICS, the global exit XRMIOUT is started (by default) when you start the product. This exit then collects DB2-related call information for every DB2 call done in the system. This can have significant performance implications in some DB2 SITES. If your site is not licensed for DB2 you will also want to turn this option off.
The CA InterTest for CICS IN25OPTS parameter XRMIO=YES/NO controls the use of this exit. The default is XRMIO=YES. We recommend that you carefully review this prior to using the default settings. To see what CA InterTest for CICS options are currently active in your CICS region you can display the options online in your CICS region by entering the VRPT transaction at a clear screen in CICS and pressing enter. Then select option 2
