There was a product you could purchase called SoftAudit. It could do some of
what you are looking for (If I remember correctly)
The other options some shops took, was having their programs issue a WTO
indicating what module called what. Probably well past what you could work with
at this point.
Another option was to create a calling program, that would cut an user SMF
record to collect some of this data.
Where you are at, you might need to purchase a product, like SoftAudit, that
could do some of this analysis.
I think it would be very difficult to actually identify anything that is
executed from a LINK, XCTL, or LOAD function. Very little in SMF other than the
pgmname that can be captured. If you are asking - Can I identify when a
subroutine SUBA is called - probably not. If you want to know when MAINA is
used, probably yes
What you could do is download from CBTTAPE.ORG the utility DAF (Dataset Audit
Facility).
File # 094 DAF from Mike Cleary - Dataset Audit Facility
It can read all SMF Data and provide summary information based on
Program Name
Job Name
Date
DSN
And so forth.
I used it recently to see anything touching a specific library or program name.
It was very helpful.
You can see if DAF can help.
Hope that helps.
