>Is this message in your job's output ? >IFA018I SMF DATA SET DUMPIN HAS BEEN CLEARED.
This message is useless. Not only is it issued when the DUMPIN has *NOT* been cleared, in addition the STC/JOB/whatever ends with a RC0. There isn't even an indication that something went wrong. To top it off, IBM calls this 'normal' behaviour and declared the apar a USER ERROR (ow20466). I know because just this week we ran into exactly what was described in the apar - we had started an (unplanned) SMFDUMP from the wrong system in the sysplex. That job was a test to see if a new set of dump options works. Regards, Barbara Nitz -- Der GMX SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen!
