I am trying to recall. I think SMF 17 may be written for non-VSAM as well as 
VSAM. The doc (V2R1 is what I happen to have open) says "Record type 17 is 
written when a non-temporary DASD data set or a temporary DASD data set is 
scratched." Would not seem to exclude VSAM.

In my experience, the most frequent cause of "how come I don't see an SMF xx 
record for such-and-such?" is the convoluted logic of SMFPRMxx TYPE/NOTYPE 
SYS/SUBSYS logic. Do a D SMF,O and look very, very carefully at the output. It 
sometimes turns out that at some point in history lost in the mists of time 
someone said "we are filling up SMF with 65's from TSO" or some such logic and 
turned SMF type 65 off for TSO.

Charles Thank You for taking the time to respond on New Year Eve and 
unfortunately, the datasets in question are VSAM Datasets and would I see the 
information for that.
Happy New Year to You and to All!
