Ron,
Please, correct me if I'm wrong.
Job fails, so cluster must be deleted and restored from backup. Am I
right ?
So, IMHO restore also restores VSAM stats, doesn't it ?
I mean restore, not REPRO or IMPORT.

Tom, et al,
I was just thinking... CICS aside, when a job ABENDS while updating a KSDS
file, what is the most common thing that happens to allow the job to be
rerun? Delete and restore the KSDS, right? So what good are the accumulated
statistics at this point - valid or invalid? Well there worth zilcho,
because they were just deleted. Gone forever.
And the next day someone takes a LISTCAT of that file and makes some
decision based on those stats, assuming that it represents 24 hours of
activity, when it is really just the last 20 minutes of the batch run. Smart
move!
I would rather we just got rid of all the stats from LISTCAT. We don't have
a listdb2, listdl1, listfastpath or listqsam, so why the religious fervour
around LISTC stats?
