RACFSMF already does that after it archives the file to the 192 disk. RACFSMF is designed to be autologged at the same time every day (e.g. midnight). Its behavior is governed by the settings in the PROFILE EXEC (SMFPROF EXEC). But, in general, an SMSG RACFVM SMF SWITCH causes RACF to close the active SMF log and detach the disk it is on. You have to look at the SMF CONTROL file on RACFVM's 191 in order to know which disk is CURRENT so you know which disk to go after. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
