Maybe I am not understanding your question. Lets try and clear it up. Dataset creation yes Dataset write yes Dataset read yes The above is for 99.9 of all datasets. There are some exclusions the exclusion are system type datasets DSCB etc…But for all intents reasonable any batch/stc/tso are created SMF records are written. If we take your example, TCP creates a file - Yes SMF record(s) are written. If TCP reads the files - yes smh record is written. IF TCP overwrites a file SMF record is written. If TCP deletes a file SMF record(s) are written. The only unknown here is if its a unix file, I am sure that they are written but what types are is to me unknown but S/B easily findable The other *IF* is which type of records are cut. Types 14/15 are read write for non unix files there are records for unix files but I haven’t tried to go after them. As one responder says try DAF on the CBTTape it is a good program and its free. You only have to have a basic knowledge of MVS to read the report(s).
