Hi John,
it's the same for me.
Sometimes I get the right behaviour and other times no !
The COBOL program does the OPEN I-O and the SMF64 states the step did both
READ and UPDATE (the flag in the SMF64 is coherently incoherent).
Look at the SMF64 record below.
In my understanding, if at CLOSE

Hi all,
we started analyzing SMF62 to trace which A.S. use VSAM datasets and their
intent (Read or Update).
To do the task we analyze the SMF62MC1 flag (zOS 1.13).
So, a Cobol program does the following:

Is this [SMF record] flags byte recording behavior? Or is it

If the latter, should not opening for update set both the IN and the

Thanks to Bill for his update.
I agree with John that IBM should better explain the meaning of the byte

In my opinion, from version to version (or single PTF) the Cobol Behaviour

It's SMF 64 which gives you a clue as to what actually HAPPENED - with
Read, Update, Insert and Delete counters, plus the CI / CA Split counts,
level changes etc. No 62. 64 is CLOSE, 62 is OPEN.
