SMF Type 42 subtypes 20 and/or 21 will give you that information: 21 for straight member delete, and 20 for PDSE directory re-initialize. I don't think type 17 is relevant to this problem.
Be aware that it is possible for a malicious programmer to defeat it: if a program opens a PDS as a BSAM dataset and manipulates the directory directly that will not be reflected in SMF Type 42, although SMF 15 would show that a PDS was closed for xSAM output -- and there would be no corresponding SMF Type 42. Although I suppose it might be possible to defeat that check also.

I need to find the date, time & ID a member was deleted. If this is the case does anyone have a process to do this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
