Do you do the switch on all LPARS simultaneously on midnight? My (bad) experience is that you should do 'I SMF' one or two LPAR(s) in a sysplex at a time. What is running on that LPAR during midnight? >We issue "I MVS" at around midnight followed by our daily SMF accumulation process. We also switch our JES2 SYSLOG at this time. Interestingly I moved the "I SMF" command just a few minutes later and U29 seems to get control just fine. What is 'I MVS' command? You mean perhaps 'I SMF'? Perhaps that exit does something? Submitting a job or issueing a WTO? >I'ts my understanding that IEFU29 runs as part of the SMF address space so I assume that I'm off base assuming that the WRITELOG we issue for the SYSLOG at the same time is affecting IEFU29....however moving the time by just a few minutes after the WRITELOG seems to have solved the issue. Has anyone else come accross this before? IEFU29 is indeed part of SMF address space as documented. I have no more comments, but who issued the WRITELOG and 'I SMF' commands? > Any notions about why IEFU29 is not invoking as expected? What is your exit doing? Do you have the source code?
