16.2 Statistics Data

When each CICS program exits, CICS runtime generates a file named [module]_[PID]_profile.xls. [module] is the CICS program name; [PID] is the process ID of the CICS runtime server in which the program is executed. This file is a tab-separated text file; you can directly open this file with a spreadsheet like Microsoft Excel.

If there are some subprogram calls, XCTL, or LINK commands inside CICS program, CICS runtime can also generate the statistics file for each subprogram or LINKed program.

All statistics files are generated in $APPDIR.
