I would hope he does have SMF recording on for all dataset activity, I would bet that most sites do. Nobody needs to write a program to read SMF dataset records, several already exist.
>>> Anton Britz <[email protected]> 8/4/2009 9:50 AM >>> John, You mean, you run SMF recording ON for all your dataset activity ? Sounds like you have very little batch activity in your shop and if this is true, just run a IPOUPDTE scan on all the JCL job libraries, scanning for the JOB that uses this dataset instead. Summarized : Otherwise, you have to switch more SMF record recording on Write a program or pay a fortune to use SAS Instead of "One command to TSS/RACF" and one Tss/Racf utility that you can run whenever. Never mind... NASA rewrote the Operating System so why can we not do the same.
