We have this problem where JCL's are promoted into production job libraries 
(CA7's) using REPRO or some other devious methods. As a result, we lose ISPF 
statistics for the promoted members. It gets annoying when we want to find out 
who made changes to a JCL, when there's a problem with the job.

I've put together a REXX to

1.       Go through a day's SMF and extract 42 subtype 24

2.       Extract only the lines I'm interested in (those recording changes to 
production job libraries) - this I get dynamically by issuing a /DISPLAY,ST=JCL 
via a CA7 API

3.       Check if the member statistics for these records are available

4.       If not, overwrite with what was found in SMF. I traverse SMF in 
reverse, so the latest log statement for a dataset (from that day) is used

5.       Additionally, it produces a CSV of all the modifications done to these 
libraries I'm interested in (joblibs and the usual gang - PARMLIB, PROCLIB, etc)

If anyone's interested in such a program, please contact me off list. Although 
I have a feeling that you guys would have proper source code promotion tools.
