The List debugging profiles screen

Use the List debugging profiles screen to display a list of debugging profiles. When you start the debugging profile manager, CICS displays the List debugging profiles screen.

When you use the debugging profile manager for the first time, CICS displays all the profiles that you own. Subsequently, CICS displays the profiles that were selected when you last used it.

If there are more profiles than can be displayed on one screen, use PF7 and PF8 to scroll backwards and forwards through the list. If you have no profiles, CICS displays an empty list.

The list contains selected information from the debugging profiles. The columns on the screen are:

Owner: The userid of the profile owner; that is, of the user who created the profile.
Profile: The name of the profile
S: The status of the profile (A for Active, or I for Inactive)

The following columns display information specified when the profile is created:

Tran

Displays the contents of the transaction field

Program

Displays the contents of the program field

Compile Unit

Displays the the first ten characters of the Compile Unit field. If the Compile Unit name is longer, a + to the right of the name shows that only part of the name is displayed.

Applid

Displays the contents of the Applid field

Userid

Displays the contents of the Userid field

Term

Displays the contents of the Terminal field

Type

Displays the type of program specified in the debugging profile:

Corb: CORBA object
EJB: Enterprise bean
Java: Java program
LE: Compiled language program

Not all the information in the debugging profile is displayed on the List debugging profiles screen. To display the additional information, move the cursor to the line that contains the profile, and press PF4.

You can change the way CICS displays information on the List debugging profiles screen:

Selecting which profiles are displayed

Use PF2 to cycle through the available options in turn. The options are

Display all the profiles in the system. This is the setting the first time you use the debugging profile manager
Display the profiles that you own
Display all active profiles

Sorting the list

Use PF11 to cycle through the available options in turn. The options are:

Re-display the profiles in sequence of profile name. This is the sequence the first time you use the debugging profile manager
Re-display the profiles in sequence of transaction ID
Re-display the profiles in sequence of program name
Re-display the profiles in sequence of owner

In each case, CICS uses the EBCDIC sorting sequence.

Your choice of which profiles are displayed, and your chosen sequence, are preserved, and used the next time you use the debugging profile manager.
