Within Job Control Language (JCL) it is possible to call a system program to execute a user program. Enterprise Analyzer (EA) can trap the call to the system routine, but how do configure EA to detect that a user program is being called by the system program?Normally, when a system program is called from JCL, the user program to be executed is passed as parameter to the system program via in-line or actual control cards. As part of the EA installation a file called legacy.xml is supplied and this is a configuration file for EA. This text file can be modified to tell EA how to extract the user program name from the parameters that are passed to the system program. This is covered in the advanced help topic “Detecting Programs Started by Driver Utilities”.

Several questions asked about Performance and Functions of a PAC configuration. 1. What is the expected performance gain, assuming 3 ES instances as recommended? 2. How much disk space is required on the DB2 server for the additional required databases? 3. We use compile option 'NOFCD3" for our COBOL project. I see a note in your documentation that "MFDBFH does not support COBOL programs compiled with NOFCD3". What is "MFDBFH" and how do you anticipate the limitation will impact us if we utilize PAC? 4. Scale-Out Repository (SOR) requirements for a NoSQL database. 4a. The documentation lists Redis and Oracle solutions. I am not familiar with these but I don't believe our client is employing either of them currently. At a high-level please explain more on what this does and why it is required? 4b. We do not use either CICS TS or TD queues. Is the NoSQL database still required? Read full knowledge article for resolution#SupportTips/KnowledgeDocs#EnterpriseDeveloper

Situation Enterprise Developer has a compiler directive NODYNAM that means any CANCEL statements in that COBOL program and ignored.  Cause Can you have a mixture of DYNAM and NODYNAM compiled modules used in the same CICS transaction.  Resolution Yes technically there is no issues. Modules compiled with NODYNAM will just have their CANCEL statements ignored. Modules compiled DYNAM will respect CANCEL statements.Testing should be performed to ensure that logically the application provides the required results.
