IRXJCL would have no way to "record the member" (in the SMF 30). IBM would of course be free to add the PARM= information to the SMF 30 record, or to create a new record type for PARM= data, or a new record type for IRXJCL options and results. I have no idea of the efficacy of an RFE, but snowflakes and Avernus come to mind. I do not disagree with the assertion that PARM= data would be useful. As a guy who has spent the past 8 years trying to populate organizational security threat repositories from the contents of SMF records I can tell you that there is a lot of additional data that would be useful in SMF records.

Most readers would find the "%SOMETHING" more informative than "IRXJCL". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN MARKSANDSPENCER.COM ________________________________ Unless otherwise stated above: Marks and Spencer plc Registered Office: Waterside House 35 North Wharf Road London W2 1NW Registered No. 214436 in England and Wales.
