Switch log data sets


To switch from the current log data set to the next available one, use the I (Switch) line command on the CT view.

An archive request for the log data set just inactivated is started if one was specified on the trace request. If the switch command is issued and only one log data set is defined, logging either reuses the same data set (TRREUSE=Y) or quiesces (TRREUSE=N).


Note

  • To issue the I line command for traces other than your own, you must have the authority to purge any request.
  • Read access to profile prefix. ssid.BBI. target.PMACC# is needed for an external security package. An entry of PMACC=# in the user authorization member of the BBPARM data set is needed if no external security package is installed.
