How to identify if there was syncpoint issued - db2

Question

I'm working on COBOL cics program,the program has multiple syncpoint and executed on different scenarios.
I wanted to perform some logic if any point of time under this cics task syncpoint issued or not.
Pls help in advise if there any way around or keywords to check the same.

Answer 1

According to the documentation an implicit syncpoint is issued for...
EXEC CICS CREATE TERMINAL
EXEC CICS CREATE CONNECTION COMPLETE
EXEC CICS DISCARD CONNECTION
EXEC CICS DISCARD TERMINAL
EXEC CICS RETURN at the highest level
a DL/I program specification block (PSB) termination (TERM) call or command
EXEC CICS DISCARD TDQUEUE
EXEC CICS CSD DISCONNECT
EXEC CICS CSD UNLOCK
EXEC CICS CSD APPEND
EXEC CICS CSD REMOVE
EXEC CICS CSD RENAME
EXEC CICS CSD LOCK
EXEC CICS CSD DELETE
EXEC CICS CSD ADD
EXEC CICS CSD INSTALL
EXEC CICS CSD DEFINE
EXEC CICS CSD ALTER
EXEC CICS CSD COPY
EXEC CICS CSD USERDEFINE
EXEC CICS CREATE PROCESSTYPE
EXEC CICS CREATE DUMPCODE
EXEC CICS CREATE PIPELINE
EXEC CICS CREATE DUMPTEMPLATE
EXEC CICS CREATE PARTNER
EXEC CICS CREATE TRANCLASS
EXEC CICS CREATE JOURNALMODEL
EXEC CICS CREATE MAPSET
EXEC CICS CREATE ENQMODEL
EXEC CICS CREATE PROCESSTYPE
EXEC CICS CREATE PARTITIONSET
EXEC CICS CREATE TSMODEL
EXEC CICS CREATE PROFILE
EXEC CICS CREATE DB2TRAN
EXEC CICS CREATE DB2ENTRY
EXEC CICS CREATE TRANSACTION
EXEC CICS CREATE TDQUEUE
EXEC CICS CREATE TYPETERM
Distributed Program Link calls specifying SYNCONRETURN
...and explicitly through an EXEC CICS SYNCPOINT.

Answer 2

So the problem here is that a SYNCPOINT ^should^ be null and void logically. If your program is depending on knowing when a SYNCPOINT happens for any reason, it is likely to fail frequently in production under any sort of load.
Rather than trying to identify when a SYNCPOINT happens, you should be looking for ways to remove that (perceived) dependency from your code. You will be better off in the end not trying to micromanage all the transaction partners and just letting the platform do its job.
