I have our SMF dump jobs dumping directly to a tape dataset with LRECL=32760 and BLKKSIZE=32760,RECFM=VBS. Fortunately we are small enough to dump SMF once a day so there are no speed issues not dumping to DASD (saves a lot of dasd). I was just curious if this a a sound way of handling SMF? I've even considered making the output tape blksize something larger such as 256K but have always just stayed with the safe 32760. Thanks for any help!
