Flow process for SMF data set monitoring solution
The processing flow for the SMF data set monitoring solution is described as follows:
When the IEE362A, IEE391A or IEE392I SMF Enter Dump For SYS1.MANx ON SER message is received, the task to dump the data set (SMFCLEAR) is started. If a value was not specified for the SMFCLEAR variable, no processing occurs.
When the IEE949I or IEE974I message (output from D SMF command) is received, the task to dump the data set (SMFCLEAR) is started if it is not already active. If a value was not specified for the SMFCLEAR variable, no processing occurs.
When the IEE361I, IEE364I, IEE393I or IEE366I messages are received, the primary system programmer is notified if a value was specified for the SYSPROG variable.
If a value was specified for variable SMFALT, the operator receives an ALERT requesting that the alternate SMF parameters be switched. If the operator confirms the switch, the T SMF command is issued. The primary system programmer is notified of the switch if a value was specified for the SYSPROG variable.
