2010-01-14 Thread George Rodriguez
Hi ListServ Listeners, I can't remember where, but I read that this program (SMFDUMP) can be used to dump the SMF records from the standard SYS1.MAN_ datasets. I found a copy of the source in SYS2.IPO1.SAMPLIB but before I implement this new process, I need to ask a few questions. The reason I
