But first I must trigger some trace data. I found there is an SMS trace, but I wonder if this produces much more than I need.
I found a replacement for the WRITE-trace mechanism: I defined a Storage Class that is not used and at the point that I needed the WRITE trace info, I set the SC to this specific SC. By moving this piece of code to different decision points in the SC routine, I found the place where it made the wrong decision. I could define several trace-SCs and at point 1 set SC1, at point 2 set SC2 etc. Thus one can determine which code was executed. A little bit complicated, but an adequate replacement for the missing WRITE information.

At z/OS V1.7 and above (I think) you use IPCS to unload the trace data.

You might try this url https://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg3S1000411 Problems with ACS routines and how to set an ACS trace I am not sure how to pull the ACS Trace and read it after it is collected. I like a tool called SMSDEBUG for this, but that is a purchase.

Hello, I have an problem in my StorClas ACS routine, which I cannot put my finger on. The routine is suspected to not assign a Storclas to an allocation request, which causes the request to fail. However I cannot find if it really does and if so, why. WRITE commands are useless, because these messages will never be displayed if the allocation is done by dynamic allocation, which is the case here. Is there any other way to find out what my StorClas routine does and decides? Thanks, Kees. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ******************************************************** For information, services and offers, please visit our web site: http://www.klm.com.
