Hi Alan,

Thanks for the response. I did get it to work. The main reason that I was not 
getting any output was because the user that I was running the RACDSMON EXEC 
under did not have Auditor privileges in RACF. Once I fixed that it worked. 
However there were some strange messages that came out dealing with bad syntax 
in the SMF CONTROL file, and that SMF was not active, none of this was true. 
SMF was running and the control file had no issues.

So I think I am going to open up a PMR to have them take a look.

Thank You,

You have an error in your SMF CONTROL file on RACFVM's 191.  It is 
column-sensitive.  Your system is not collecting audit records.

Is it shared, or isn't it?  If RACF thinks the db is non-shared, but it 
really is, then you may have a corrupted database.

Or, have you copied (via DDR) the datasets to a disk that is smaller than 
the disk you first created the datasets on?  Consider contacting the 
Support Center.
