Issue/Introduction

Datacom/DB provides a number of options to monitor the requests it processes through the Accounting Facility. A useful selection field is the Job Type, called JTYPE. What are the values of this JTYPE field, and is there a way to identify all batch processing?

Resolution

Accounting Facility JTYPE Values

Hex Value	Description of this value
02	This is a CICS request
09	CA Datacom VSAM Transparency
0C	IMS/DC
0F	CA Datacom® Server
11	DBUTLTY running in the Multi-User Facility (excludes DBTSTPR)

There is no current value set explicitly for batch processing; any source other than the above should have a value of x'00', but this is not guaranteed.
