Log Analyzer automatically can identify log data sets to use as input (as explained in Implicitly-specifying-IMS-log-data-sets-to-allocate). To prevent IMS performance problems, by default Log Analyzer does not try to select an OLDS that is in active use by IMS. If you want to allow Log Analyzer to select an active OLDS, you can specify the data set name of the active OLDS by using the SLDS keyword or you can specify the ACTIVEOLDS keyword.

Specify one of the following values:

  • NO

    Do not select an OLDS that is designated as an active OLDS in the RECON. This value is ignored if you have specified the data set name of the OLDS by using the SLDS keyword.

  • YES

    Allow Log Analyzer to select an OLDS for input to the analysis process even if it is designated as an active OLDS in the RECON. (Log Analyzer selects an active OLDS only if it is included in the specified interval.)

The default value is NO.

Information
Example

To allow Log Analyzer to select an active OLDS for the IMSA system, specify the following keywords on the ANALYZE control statement:

IMSID=IMSA

ACTIVEOLDS=YES
