Problem summary
When using the CICS Explorer Regions”view, there is a column showing the region's Startup Date. When trying to create a quick filter for one of the values, this results in an empty view and the error message: CNX0226W A filter contained an invalid value. This is because the CMCI expects the date format to be yyyy/DDD whereas the date inside CICS Explorer is processed as yyyy-MM-dd. This means that when a filter in yyyy-MM-dd format is passed to CPSM, the user receives an error.”
Problem conclusion
CICS Explorer has been altered so that the CMCI will now receive the Startup Date format as yyyy/DDD. This means that it is now possible to do a quick filter on a region's Startup Date. . This fix will be made available in Version 5.5.0.5 of the CICS Explorer.s . CICS Transaction Server for z/OS APAR PH19076 needs to be applied in order for filtering when aggregated to work. .
