Primary input: trace log data sets


The input to CMTBPRNT is VSAM data sets created by trace requests with logging.

All TLDSs are tracked in a trace directory and can be accessed from the HT view.

To submit a batch print job for this data, you can

  • Specify one or more TLDSs in a series of TRACINxx DD statements

    Only TLDS data sets can be specified in this manner.

  • Use the TRACEID keyword with the TRACEDIR DD statement, if you do not know the exact names of the trace data sets

    The TRACEDIR DD statement identifies the directory data set. The TRACEID keyword identifies the specific trace entries in which you are interested. You can specify only one TRACEID per batch job. The specified TRACEID remains in effect across all report requests.

    BMC recommends that you also use the TARGET, DATE, and TIME keywords to further qualify which trace data sets are selected.

  • Specify an archived TLDS in an ARCIN DD statement

    This allows you to print directly from the archived sequential data set without reloading it to a VSAM linear data set.
