7.2.4 Record Identifiers and JCL – Network Data


The NETDATA SELECT File displays when PF key 4 (Create/Edit
Select File) is entered from the Network Data Parameters
panel.  Figure 7-4g is a sample of the XEDIT panel of the
NETDATA SELECT file showing the distributed defaults.

Record identifiers for NETDATA data are up to eight
characters long.  The record identifier consists of two parts
separated by a slash (/).  The first part is the network data
source or record type, and the second part is the record
subtype.

To specify all network records, code an asterisk (*) as the
network data source.  To specify all records within a
datatype, code the record type as an asterisk.

See Figure 3-4, Network Data Selection Report, for a list of
the available datatypes and records.

EXAMPLE:  Retain only system-wide data, configuration data,
processor data, and device data.

    NETSPY 251            ! specify the NetSpy record type
    INCLUDE 251/U 251/S   ! send NetSpy user and session data
    EXCLUDE 251/S         ! drop NetSpy session data
    EXCLUDE 37/* 39/*     ! drop all NetView (NPDA and NLDM)
    INCLUDE 28/12 28/10   ! send NPM PU interval (X'12')
    *                       and NCP interval (X'10') records
    UNKNOWN EXCLUDE       ! drop all unrecognized records

Data Parameters panel, the following screen is displayed.
