Sounds like you need to enable SMF Interval Recording (SYS(...(INTERVAL)) in SMFPRMxx. Set the interval as low as needed. Can be enabled/disabled dynamically to limit the amount of type 30 (1,2,6) and RMF records written to SMF. As another has suggested, RMF III can also provide some good

For the curious, IDCAMS does indeed use STOW (with I) to delete all the members of a PDS or PDSE. This is not only fast, but it eliminates any need to compress a PDS afterward. (Had you come to SHARE, you might have known that--hint, hint. ;-) Also, this function has been available since z/OS

Should utilities FREE DDNAMEs?

In a program, I am passed a DDNAME allocated by another program. I'd like to use it twice, once as IEBGENER SYSUT1 and once as TSO RECEIVE INDD. Either works by itself. But each utility seems to FREE its DDNAME before returning (is this documented, or perhaps common knowledge?), so I can't use

IIRC, Sysview will only have historical data if "History Datasets" (or whatever they are called) are allocated, which might or might not be your case. Anyway, it's worth a try!
