Specifying INTERVAL control statements

The INTERVAL control statement (or the INT abbreviation) specifies the beginning and end of a range of log records to process.

Log Analyzer also uses this statement to determine which log data sets to allocate automatically from RECON information.

If log data sets are allocated from RECON information, the INTERVAL statement is required. If you specify the SLDS keyword, the INPEXT keyword, or both keywords on the ANALYZE control statement, the INTERVAL statement is optional. For more information, see Implicitly-specifying-IMS-log-data-sets-to-allocate.

To process multiple non-contiguous ranges of log records, specify multiple INTERVAL statements (each with a START and STOP keyword). An INTERVAL statement must follow the ANALYZE statement and precede the END control statement, but you can specify it in any position relative to other control statements.
