Would you think that SYS was shorthand for SYSIN? Can anyone point me to the
doc for how SMF parms are read from SYSIN?

Hi Charles,

I believe the answer to your question was provided by Jonathan Goossen in
his reply of 18th May.

The System Commands manual indicates that the output from the command is
displayed as message IEE967I.

This manual states that 

"orig 

The origin of the keyword parameter, which is one of the following: 
CHANGED
DEFAULT
PARMLIB
REPLY
SYSIN"

It would be reasonable to assume that PARMLIB as an origin is SMFPRMnn, that
REPLY was a in response to a prompt from the console, and that SYSIN was
from a DD statement of that name. In a similar vein it would be logical for
DEFAULT to be some pre-assembled source, and CHANGED to be the result of a
SET command. 

Agreed that what I have said above is assumption rather than definitively
documented fact, but I suspect that most readers of the group only have the
same documentation sources as you and I.

Kind Regards - Terry
