Product Overview

The architecture of CICS Explorer consisted of several key components. The Data Collector component was responsible for retrieving SMF Type 110 records from the z/OS system. The Data Repository stored the collected performance data, and the Reporting Engine generated reports based on user-defined criteria.

Communication between components occurred through standard z/OS interfaces. The product utilized a GUI for configuration and management, allowing users to define data sources, reporting intervals, and performance thresholds. The product is not supported.

Alternative solutions such as IBM Z Performance and Capacity Analytics offer similar capabilities with enhanced features and support.
