Using the REPORT command

You use the REPORT command to generate reports based on the DFSMShsm statistics records in the MCDS.

When you request a statistics report, you can specify the DELETE parameter to scratch the statistics records used as input to the report after the REPORT command finishes its processing. This parameter is not related to the DELETE subparameter of the FUNCTION parameter. You can also have the output from the REPORT command sent either to the SYSOUT class or to an alternative output data set. For an alternative method of creating customized reports about HSM activities from SMF (FSR and WWFSR) records see Obtaining information from DFSMShsm and the z/OS DFSMSrmm Reporting .
