Correct. The report shows the START and END timestamps of the input data - not 
the output requested.

Try running the extract again, using TECH.SCRT.PART2 as your input and see what 
dates you get.  I think it MIGHT be giving you the beginning and ending dates 
of the data it found in the input report.

Subject: Extracting SMF records with IFASMFDP

I am attempting to extract a subset of a subset of SMF data for a time period 
from 00:00 to 14:00 on 8/9/2014 (2014221):
//SMFDPTAP  EXEC  PGM=IFASMFDP
//SYSPRINT  DD SYSOUT=*
//DUMPIN    DD DSN=SE.EN.X02.SCRT.DATA.G2871V00,DISP=SHR

//             DISP=(,CATLG,DELETE),
//             UNIT=SYSALLDA,
//             SPACE=(CYL,(5,1),,CONTIG),
//             DCB=D.SMF
//SYSIN     DD *
INDD(DUMPIN,OPTIONS(DUMP))
OUTDD(DUMPOUT,TYPE(0:255))
DATE(2014221,2014221)
START(0000)
END(1400)
//

When the job runs, I receive this report:

IFA010I SMF DUMP PARAMETERS

The input data set only contains data for 8/9/14 - 2014221.  So, why does the 
report says the Start Date is 08/01/2014?  And the end data is 8/10/24?  I have 
specified a Start Date of 8/9/2014.
Why does the End Date become 8/10/2014 and the end time is 00:00:00 when I have 
specified an end time of 14:00 and a End Date of 2014221 - 8/9/2014?
