George,

While this may work you do realize this would (may) mount 3 tapes. I think that you may find that dumping SMF to a disk dataset would be faster and less prone to hardware errors (drive or media). I would also suggest that j910 file (that you create daily) should be under catalog control (and put a few days buffer in it for long weekends and possibly vacations depending on who is going to be "monitoring" the job as issues seem to pop up on weekends .

To avoid mod could I concatenate the input DDs including the last weekly GDS first along with the daily dump as follows crating a new weekly GDS? By the way this would be the second step in my live SMF dump job therefore the +1
for my input daily.
