Esmie moo, The SMF17 record is simple and straight forward as it does not have variable sections or triplets. There are 2 time fields in the SMF layout
SMF17TME - Time since midnight, in hundredths of a second, when the record was moved into the SMF buffer. SMF17RST - Time since midnight, in hundredths of a second, that the reader recognized the JOB card (for this job). I assumed that you wanted to extract the data from SMF17RST field. So here is a DFSORT job which will format your entire SMF17 data while extracting the information that ran between 15:00:00(3 pm) and 17:00:00(5 pm). Look at the OUTFIL INCLUDE commands for the inclusion ranges. //STEP2 EXEC PGM=SORT //SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=* //SORTIN DD DISP=(OLD,DELETE),DSN=&&SM11, //SORTOUT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSIN DD * OPTION COPY,VLSHRT INCLUDE COND=(6,1,BI,EQ,17) $ TYPE 17 INREC BUILD=(1,4, 07,4,TM1,EDIT=(TT:TT:TT), $ SMF17TME X, $ SPACE 11,4,DT1,EDIT=(TTTT-TT-TT), $ SMF17DTE X, $ SPACE 15,4, $ SMF17SID X, $ SPACE 19,8, $ SMF17JBN X, $ SPACE 27,4,TM1,EDIT=(TT:TT:TT), $ SMF17RST X, $ SPACE 31,4,DT1,EDIT=(TTTT-TT-TT), $ SMF17RSD X, $ SPACE 35,8, $ SMF17UID X, $ SPACE 43,2, $ RESERVED X, $ SPACE 45,44, $ SMF17DSN X, $ SPACE 89,3, $ RESERVED X, $ SPACE 92,1,BI,EDIT=(TTT), $ SMF17NVL X, $ SPACE 93,2, $ RESERVED X, $ SPACE 95,6) $ SMF17FVL OUTFIL VTOF,BUILD=(5,128), INCLUDE=(39,8,CH,GE,C'15:00:00',AND, 39,8,CH,LE,C'17:00:00') //* Further if you have any questions please let me know Thanks, Kolusu IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> wrote on 01/26/2017 10:21:14 AM: > From: esmie moo <0000012780d99c7b-dmarc-requ...@listserv.ua.edu> > To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU > Date: 01/26/2017 10:21 AM > Subject: SMF QUESTION > Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> > > Gentle Readers, > > I am trying to print TYPE 17 records(using IDCAMS PRT command) to > find out what dsns were deleted from 15:00 (3.pm.) up to 17:00 > (5.pm.
