Someone on a small z800 might think you are a large shop. But going by my personal experience... I guess I would say you are probably a medium sized shop. >I have one (1) man dataset per 3390-9 >volume and each is dumped four times a day and I don't have VSAM nor CICS >activity logged. > >I prefer to have all the possible records rather than have to regret for >don't have them. There are different levels of CICS activity you can record. I'm sure someone else can elaborate on the different options (summaries vs. detail records etc.). But I would always want to keep them for a period of time for historical purposes or capacity problem analysis. When you say you don't ahve VSAM, does that mean you aren't collecting 60-62? If so, don't your auditors care? >What's your particular setting if you don't mind in share it? > One of the 2 major envionments I support has this: NOTYPE(4,5,19,20,34,35,40,69,92(10:11),99) Another has this: NOTYPE(19,20,40,50:60,92,99) Comments on above: Not sure why the 2nd one doesn't exclude 4/5 since they are also in the type 30 records, but perhaps it's because they run CA-7 and never got rid of them. 34/35 are excluded for the same reason in the first one. 40s (dynamic DD) are also in the 30s, so they are excluded as well. Don't know why the 2nd one excludes 50-60. 92s are a performance consideration for WAS (or other OMVS apps). But the only concern is 92 subtypes 10/11, so I elected to only exclude those subtypes when I added that. There is other information in the 92s that I have wanted. 99 (WLM) we already discussed and is recommended to be excluded by IBM.
