Log Edit input data

Input to Log Edit consists of IMS transaction workload data that has been recorded in the IMS log.

Some of the IMS log records are written by IMS and some are written by the Event Collector. The Log Edit IMFLEDIT program processes all of the BMC AMI Ops Monitor for IMS Offline product records and some of the IMS records to produce reports and files that can serve as input to the BMC AMI Ops Monitor for IMS Offline components. All input data should represent a single day, as described in .

To implement input record selection through the standard IMS log archive process, specify a user output file and record selection control statements.

With the IMFLEDIT program, you can extract the data directly from the IMS log or from an archived subset of the log. Sample log archive JCL is provided in BMC AMI Ops Monitor for IMS Offline BBSAMP member ARCHJCL. Sample control statements are provided in members ARCHCTL1 and ARCHCTL2.

Log-record-layouts describes the record layout of the IMS log files.

Tip

To avoid producing a separate data set during each archive run, you can specify DISP=MOD for the user output file.
