Last year I started writing "copybooks" of all SMF records so I can include them in my various SMF/DFSort reports using symbol names rather than the usual offsets, etc... I even use DFSort for daily SMF processing including splitting off DB2, CICS, etc.. and it even supports a 7-day SPIN file. Works great.

I have not received permission to drop the SMFUTIL process yet, but that's coming.

Unless something came out within the past month or so, there are still some, to me, shortcoming with the new capabilities of DFSort; mainly in its symbol processing area.


Gary,

Congratulations that is an intensive (and probably boring job). Are you using the assembler labels(in the corresponding macro's) for names? Have you found any "neato" ways to get the COBOL Copybooks to generate partial labels? (ie SMF04jobnme or close to?) The IBM Assembler macros have a nice feature built-in way of putting labels on fields. I think (from what I have read on here) that there is not an easy way to do this. This might be a nice addition to the CBTTAPE as well when you finish.
