Hi,
Could someone give me some help: I would like to know if it is possible to get
in some control block (or via some MACRO/API program) the name of the active
SMF dataset (and the alternates too). I will do this in an assembler program.
In addition I would like to know the best way to read,

What are you going to do? There are several freeware functions available to
read SMF.
If you tell us what you want to do, perhaps we can give better answers.

One of the CBT tape programs does exactly this -- it "finds" the current SMF
dataset and reads it. It's probably in assembler and of course the CBT tape was
open source before open source was cool.
If you can't find it post back here and I will figure out which one I have in
mind. Maybe 523?

Hi, Mark.
Yes, it's for our shop's internal only, but you are right. I don't know when
this can happens, but ...
So I need learn about how to manipulate it if the SMF migrate to SMF logger.
Thanks for your help. IPLINFO was a good example how to get the SMF dataset
names.
For now, I need to
