Share Your ExperienceProduct Overview
The architecture of Control/CICS consisted of several key components. The data collection agent resided within the z/OS environment and collected performance metrics from the monitored CICS regions. The monitoring console provided a real-time view of the collected data, allowing users to monitor transaction performance and resource utilization.
The reporting engine processed historical data to generate performance reports. Communication between components occurred via internal z/OS mechanisms. Configuration was managed through JCL and control statements.
The product did not expose any APIs. The primary interface was a command-line interface (CLI). The product is no longer supported; users should consider alternative solutions.
