Issue/Introduction

I want to use the CA-Spool SMF Metrics Utility and want to know if I can use traditional SMF dump data sets.

There is sample JCL in member BQ4JSMFE of the prefix.CBQ4JCL library but it is set up for LOGSTREAMS.

How do I create an SMFDATA file using traditional SMF dump data sets?   

Environment

Release : 14.0

Component : Spool

Resolution

Here is a sample JCL that will dump records from the traditional SMF dump data sets:

//STEP1    EXEC PGM=IFASMFDP                                           
//OUTDD1   DD   DSN=**SMFDATA**,                         <== **UPDATE**
//         DISP=(,CATLG),                                              
//         STORCLAS=**STORCLAS**,                        <== **UPDATE**
//         UNIT=**UNIT**,                                <== **UPDATE**
//         SPACE=(CYL,(15,5),RLSE),                                    
//         DCB=(RECFM=VBS,LRECL=32760,BLKSIZE=23476)   
//DUMPIN   DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SYS1.MANx                     <== **UPDATE**  
//DUMPOUT  DD SYSOUT=X                                                 
//SYSPRINT DD   SYSOUT=*                                               
//SYSIN    DD   *                                                      
   INDD(DUMPIN,OPTIONS(DUMP))              
   OUTDD(OUTDD1,TYPE(**SMFTYPE**(11:12)))                <== **UPDATE**
//*
