Re: FW: I/O Optimization
Actually, while IBM's IFASMFDP would fail with ABEND 002 on a broken VBS segment or block, even the first public version of SAS, in October, 1972, when it was still distributed in source code from the Department of Statistics at North Carolina State University, could read and recover SMF VBS files with broken segments, thanks to the brilliant implementation by Tony Barr.

Re: FW: I/O Optimization
With your persistence in demanding that your interpretation is the ONLY correct grammar, would not An historic have been a better suggestion? And I disagree, since the THE was qualified by for SMF in OS/360 and not a reference to the earlier and different use in FORTRAN. I actually accomplish sharing information in my posts. Yours seem to exist only to inflate your ego.

As Yogi Berra is rumored to have said (there are any number of attributed variations), Prediction is hard. Especially about the future. But in my view, the chances that we will enhance IFASMFDP in this way are slim. We have been focusing instead on enhancing the functions related to writing SMF data to log streams. It wasn't prediction, it was sarcazm. I have no doubt IBM will do anything convenient in z/OS realm :-( Caution: convenient does not belong to RAS. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland -- Treść tej wiadomości może zawierać informacje prawnie chronione Banku przeznaczone wyłącznie do użytku służbowego adresata.
