Hi Radoslaw,

Yes, SMp/E will use SMPLOG until it is full, then switch to SMPLOGA.  Once that 
is full, it will not go back to SMPLOG.  According to the manual:

"If the SMPLOGA data set is full, the extra log data is written to the SMPOUT 
data set, with the date and time stamp encrypted"

I have secondary space defined for my SMPLOG datasets.  AFAIK, I've never had 
an issue with them.  That may be because I haven't had to use them.  :-)

I don't know of SMP/E actually using the data in the log file, I believe they 
are more for auditing and external problem resolution.

Subject: SMPLOG usage

(SMP/E)
SMPLOG is being used with DISP=MOD.
That means it will grow and grow until it get full (x37 abend) and then 
alternative log dataset (SMPLOGA) is used.
Am I right with the above?

Q1. What happens when SMPLOGA is full? Is SMPLOG used again with overwrite?
Q2. Is it reasonable to provide secondary space for SMPLOG datasets? 
IMHO it shoudl work as SMF (SYS1.MANx) - only primary allocation, and "round 
robin" switchover.
Q3. Does SMP/E use the information from SMPLOG? I mean "internal" usage, not 
LIST LOG command.
