Does CEM monitor the specific update made to a file ?

Issue/Introduction

Is it possible to set up an alert based on the specifics of when a VSAM dataset gets updated?

Environment

Release : 6.0

Component : CA COMPLIANCE EVENT MANAGER

Cause

CEM does not monitor the actual update made to a file.

Resolution

By design, CEM does not monitor the specifics of an update to a file (in this case VSAM). CEM does monitor 'Access' to these files, and it can also reveal the Access level, but does not monitor the actual update that takes place.
