Explanation

Where text is:

x-name:     volser      size(blks)      %full status}
This message contains the status of all data sets being used to record SMF data. It is displayed during IPL, if requested in the SMFPRMxx parmlib member or in response to a SET SMF or a DISPLAY SMF command.
Note:
  1. This message is issued instead of IEE949I only when an installation defines a data set name that does not use the SYS1.MANn naming convention.
  2. The system does not issue this message when there are no SMF data sets available. The system issues message IEE366I.
  3. The message text will split into two lines when the length of SMF data set name is greater than 18.
The header line contains the following information:
hh.mm.ss
The time, given as the hours (00-23), the minutes (00-59), and the seconds (00-59). The value is 00.00.00 if the TOD clock is not working when the information is gathered for the display.
[id]
An identifier used with the CONTROL C,D command to cancel status displays written on typewriter or printer consoles or displayed in-line (not in a display area) on display (CRT) consoles. This identification number does not appear when the display is presented in a display area on a display console.
The message text contains the following information for each SMF data set:
x
Either a P or S to indicate whether the data set is a primary SMF data set or a secondary SMF data set.
name
The name of the SMF recording data set.
volser
The volume serial number of the volume containing the SMF data set.
size(blks)
The size of the data set, in the number of control intervals. The control interval length is determined by the installation.
%full
The percentage of the data set that is full.
status
The data set status as follows:
ACTIVE
The data set is now being used to record SMF data.
ALTERNATE
The data set is available for use to record SMF data.
DUMP REQUIRED
The data set must be dumped before it can be used to record additional SMF data.
CLOSE PENDING
The data set has been switched from SMF and is waiting to be closed by SMF before it can be dumped.
*** ERROR ***
The status of the data set could not be determined or is not valid.

System action

SMF processing continues.

Operator response

If the data set status is *** ERROR ***, notify the system programmer. Otherwise, no action is needed.

System programmer response

Obtain a console dump of the SMF address space. Search problem reporting data bases for a fix for the problem. If no fix exists, contact the IBM® Support Center.

Note: When a data set name is up to 18 characters long, the message text is on one line. When the data set name is greater than 18 characters in length, the message text is split into two lines.
