SLDS keyword for the ANALYZE control statement

SLDS=(dataSetName,Rvr, unit,volser)

• For the dataSetName value, specify the fully qualified data set name. The data set can be an SLDS, an OLDS, or a log extract file that was produced by the IMS File Select and Formatting Print utility (program DFSERA10), the IEBGENER utility, or a similar utility which produces a file that contains nothing except IMS log records in their original format.

• (Optional) For the Rvr value, specify the literal R followed by the IMS version and release number of the IMS system that created the data set (for example, R141 for IMS version 14.1).

  Error

  Warning

  If Log Analyzer cannot determine the IMS version, specify the Rvr value and ensure that the correct release of IMS is specified. The internal layout of IMS log records depends on the version of IMS. If the wrong release is specified, Log Analyzer might not be able to detect the error, and results are unpredictable.

• If the log data set is not cataloged, specify the unit value to identify the unit and the volser value to identify the volume serial (VOLSER) of the volume that contains the log data set. Omit the unit value and the volser value to obtain volume information from the RECONs or the system catalog.

If you want Log Analyzer to read multiple log data sets, specify multiple instances of the SLDS keyword.

No default values are provided. If you omit the SLDS keyword and the INPEXT keyword, Log Analyzer automatically identifies log data sets to use as input, as explained in Implicitly-specifying-IMS-log-data-sets-to-allocate.

If you specify the SLDS keyword, you cannot specify the IMSID keyword. If you specify more than one SLDS keyword, you cannot specify the LIMIT keyword or the SKIP keyword, and you cannot specify a log sequence number in the INTERVAL control statement.
