Statistics domain exit XSTOUT

On invocation, XSTOUT is passed the address of a buffer containing one or more statistics records. The buffer can contain records for various resource types; for example, connections and modenames. The buffer can also contain both specific and global information; for example, loader statistics for individual programs, and loader statistics for all programs.

Your exit program can identify the types of records in the buffer by their STID values. (STID values are described in CICS statistics data section.)

You can use XSTOUT to prevent the contents of the statistics data buffer being written to SMF. Note that you cannot use it to selectively suppress individual records within the buffer. Your exit program should not modify the values of any of the exit-specific parameters.

Some statistics records might be produced during very early during CICS® initialization which will not be passed to XSTOUT. The earliest that a global user exit can be enabled is during PLT processing. Before this no exits can be invoked.
