DATA2(expression | name4 | (Rn) | *)
specifies a fullword binary variable whose contents depend on the type of user
EMP being used:
v If the MCT user EMP definition contains an ADDCNT, SUBCNT, NACNT,
EXCNT, or ORCNT option, the DATA2 variable is an area used as defined by
the user EMP definition.
v If the MCT user EMP definition contains an MLTCNT option, the DATA2
variable is an area with the number of user count fields to be updated.
The number specified in DATA2 overrides the default value defined in the
MCT for the operation. A value of 0 instructs monitoring to use the default.
Not specifying a value for DATA2 does not prevent the MLTCNT operation
from being successful; but, if it is, an exception response of
‘DATA2_NOT_SPECIFIED’ is returned. See note 5 on page 333.
v If the MCT user EMP definition contains a MOVE option, the DATA2 variable
is an area with the length of the character string to be moved.
The length specified in DATA2 overrides the default value defined in the MCT
for the operation. A value of 0 instructs monitoring to use the default. Not
specifying a value for DATA2 does not prevent the MOVE operation from
being successful; but, if it is, an exception response of
‘DATA2_NOT_SPECIFIED’ is returned. See note 5 on page 333.

.
expression
A valid assembler-language expression giving the fullword binary
variable for this EMP.
name4
The name of a 4-byte field containing the fullword binary variable for
this EMP.
(Rn) A register containing the fullword binary variable for this EMP.
* The value of this option is already present in the parameter list, or the
option is not specified for this EMP.
ENTRYNAME(name8 | string | "string")
specifies the monitoring point entry name, which qualifies the POINT value and
which is defined in the monitoring control table (MCT).
name8
The name of a location containing an 8-byte string.
string A string of characters without intervening blanks. The macro generates,
from the string, a literal constant of length 8 bytes, extending with
blanks or truncating as required.
"string"
A string, enclosed in quotation marks, and possibly containing blanks.
This value is processed in the same way as the “string” above.
Note: If, when defining the EMP in the MCT, you do not specify an entry name,
the entry name defaults to ‘USER’. ENTRYNAME likewise defaults to
‘USER’ if not specified.
POINT(expression | name2 | (Rn))
specifies the monitoring point identifier as defined in the MCT, and is in the
range 0 through 255. Note, however, that point identifiers in the range 200
through 255 are reserved for use by IBM program products.
