COPY GSVSMF25                                                          
TAB DATETIME,CTSD_TRAN(ABCD)                                           
TAB2 CTSD_TRAN                                 AND,                
CICS SUMMARY TRANSACTION CTSD_COUNT                                                        
EACH HOUR
