Adabas Audit Data Retrieval can write SMF records at different stages of list processing, when definitions are changed, etc. The information contained in these records can be used for accounting and other monitoring purposes.
SMF records can be evaluated with the help of _beta smf. For more information, see _beta smf Manual.
The writing of SMF records is controlled via LST parameters:
Note on _beta view and Web Enabler: If you are using the BSA TCP/IP server as a standalone started task and want to write SMF records for logon/logoff requests,
the LST parameters B97_SMFREC_
Adabas Audit Data Retrieval writes the following SMF record subtypes:
Subtype |
Description |
---|---|
0 |
Records list/report input Adabas Audit Data Retrieval writes a subtype 0 SMF record each time it reads in and/or indexes a list/report or reloads a list/report from the archive. If the list/report is indexed, the record is written when the list/report has been completely indexed. If the subsystem is stopped before indexing is complete, there will be no subtype 0 SMF record for this list/report. |
2 |
Records all activities of a user with a list/report Subtype 2 SMF records include all activities with lists, including index-based search (line command IX and primary command IA) and browse (line command S and primary command BA). One subtype 2 SMF record is written for each list/report that the user works with. |
4 |
Records the archiving of lists/reports Adabas Audit Data Retrieval creates a subtype 4 SMF record each time it archives a list/report. The record is written after the list/report has been archived. |
6 |
Records changes to the archive retention period |
21 |
Records the selection of lists/reports Adabas Audit Data Retrieval creates a subtype 21 record each time a selection of lists/reports is carried out online or in batch mode. |
22 |
Records modifications of generation records (IGRs) via _beta view or the ISPF online application (TSO/VDF): line commands E, A, UA, D, UD, V, NV, R and UR in the "List/Report Selection Table". |
25 |
Records Adabas Audit Data Retrieval spool access (online browsing or printing via TSO or VDF, open, download or print via _beta view) |
49 |
Records the running of an Adabas Audit Data Retrieval batch job |
50 |
Records logon requests from _beta view or Web Enabler |
51 |
Records the modification of definitions Adabas Audit Data Retrieval creates a subtype 51 record each time a definition is updated, inserted or deleted. |
55 |
Records logoff requests from _beta view or Web Enabler |
59 |
Records statistical information on the Adabas Audit Data Retrieval subsystem (for example input, output, CPU usage) |
