Here's the problem. IFASMFDL does most of what IFASMFDP does (and
more),
but what it *doesn't* do is clear out the dumped SMF data. In other
words,
after archiving the contents of a log stream to a flat file, the
now dumped
records are still sitting just where they were. A subsequent run of
IFASMFDL appears to pick up the same records all over again. The
output
file just gets bigger and bigger each time the dump is run.
For those of you who use system logger for operlog or logrec, how
do you
clean up log streams so that you get one and only copy of all the data
produced?
.

Not sure this is a solution but it might be worth a try. Sort the SMF
records each time and specify in sort to drop duplicate records.
That was you should get only 1 record and the other 1 will be dropped.
