On whole, yes, automation can be expensive both in the pocket book and in CPU cycles (of course YMMV a lot depending on package and what you are doing). However... in regards to this discussion (and remember, I'm an IEFU29 user), if you are already paying for and using console automation, be it home grown, vanilla Netview, SAA, AFOPER, BMC, etc., how much extra does it cost to write and activate a rule to dump MANx data sets when the message comes out that triggers the dump? Answer: Not enough to give a hoot. So if you have automation I don't see a problem in doing it that way if you want (even though I don't).
