What is the definition of your logstream? If the records have been offloaded, they are not really deleted by the DELETE option. The MVS logger only deletes log records at a file level when a new offload dataset is created. You will only get offloaded records deleted when every record in the offload file is available for deletion and the entire file is deleted the next time a new offload file is allocated.

I've been told that another sysprog was given a method by the ex-CICS sysprog on how to ensure that no LOGR records were lost. Apparently he has gone a round tuit yet. Below is the JCL which unloads the LOGR for one of the regions. I will wait to see what the appropriate method to ensure no loss of records is. He may suggest your method. However, I wonder about it efficacy due to the fact that this job is running while the CICS is up . I.e. the two steps may get different records because more records could be added after the first, non-delete, copy is run. No, we cannot take the region down. Not even at 02:30 hours. This is a political decision, not a technical one. Hopefully nobody is doing anything at 02:30, but I wouldn't guarantee it. //CPYDFH5A EXEC PGM=FILESAVE //STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SYS3.FILESAVE.PROD.LOADLIB // DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SYS3.FILESAVE.V4R0.LOADLIB // DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SYS3.ICEAM1.SICELINK ALLOW DYNALLOC=OFF //DFSPARM DD * OPTION DYNALLOC=OFF,ODMAXBF=2M //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=* //ARCHIVE DD DSN=LOGR.PCICS3.DFHJ05, // SUBSYS=(LOGR,DFHLGCNV,'FROM=OLDEST,TO=YOUNGEST',DELETE) //NEWJRNAL DD DSN=TSSPG.FILESAVE.ARCHIVE.PCICS3(+1), // DISP=(NEW,CATLG,CATLG),LABEL=EXPDT=99000, HW20050405 // UNIT=CAVTAPE, // DATACLAS=DCVTPDR1, VTAPE DUPLEXING FOR ONSITE/OFFSITE // VOL=(,,,35), // RECFM=U,BLKSIZE=32760,LRECL=0,DSORG=PS //SYSIN DD * NEWJOURNAL DDNAME(NEWJRNAL) ALL - RECORD(YES) COPY FROMJOURNAL(ARCHIVE) //* > -- > John McKown > Senior Systems Programmer > UICI Insurance Center > Information Technology > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
