record type, and they do not change between CICS runs. There is more
information about field identifiers in the CICS Resource Definition Guide.
Field offsets
in the performance record allow you to build a table for fast selection of
required fields in your monitoring data processing programs.
Exception data sections
The exception data section contains a single exception record representing one
exception condition.
The format of an exception data record (including the SMF header and SMF
product section) is shown in Figure 115.
The format of the exception data section can be mapped by the DSECT
MNEXCDS, which you can generate using the DFHMNEXC macro as follows:
MNEXCDS DFHMNEXC PREFIX=EXC
The label ‘MNEXCDS’ is the default DSECT name, and EXC is the default PREFIX
value, so you could also generate the DSECT simply by coding
DFHMNEXC
The MNEXCDS DSECT has the format shown in Figure 116 on page 765.
