This is my idea, for whatever it may be worth. I would create a proc with
something like:
//SYSLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=some.empty.pds
// INCLUDE MEMBER=prelibs
// DD DISP=SHR,DSN=first.standard.library
// DD DISP=SHR,DSN=second.standard.library
//* OTHER STANDARD LIBRA
If anybody out there is using CA-JMR to archive their job JCL type output, I
have a question. I cannot find any way to determine how big the MASTER,
ALTERN, and HOLD datasets should be. The example show TRK,(1,1), but that
just doesn't seem to be reasonable.
Any help?

John,
I am also really splicing three record types together. The 0200 (base USER
records), 0220 (TSO segment), and 0230 (CICS segment). The way that I did it
was to
1) run plain SORT to split the 0200, 0220, and 0230 records into separate
temporary datasets.
2) SPLICE the 0200 and 0220 records
ss the chances are about a 1000 to 1 against it. (I would
say a million to one, but wizards at the Unseen University in Anhk-Morpork
have calculated that million to one chances occur 9 times out of 10.)

I would probably do the following:

2. Create a PDS large enough to contain each TERSEd dataset as a separate

3. Put another member in that pds to restore the TERSEd datasets within it
4. XMIT that PDS (not TERSE).

I've noticed is the lower cost of entry for Intel. Granted, once we are

This is how I do it, to read SYSLOG datasets.

Rick,
Many thanks. I just compiled your program and ran it against an example
file. It worked wonderf
, but the
same type of software on z costs considerably more money. And we are in a

Is there a simple way to convert a DASD dataset which is RECFM=VBM (or FBM)

HIPAA data is restricted by US law. PCI data is restricted by something
(industry requirement? Law?).
