Data OPARLGIF Returns

OPARLGIF returns to the caller one of the following return codes, as well as information about the OPSLOG archives if you specify the second parameter. Information returned about each OPSLOG archive is a text string followed by a tilde, including the following words:

• Fully qualified data set name
• Date/time archive was created (2 words)
• Date/time of first record on archive (2 words)
• Date/time of last record on archive (2 words)
• Total records in archive
• CA OPS/MVS subsystem of the source OPSLOG
• SMF ID of the system on which the archive was run
• Job name that created the OPSLOG archive and the trailing tilde

The text string contains a total of 11 words without the tilde. All dates are in the yyyy/mm/dd format.

To split this string, use the following REXX code excerpt:

       .
       .
       .
  do while archive_info <> " "
    parse value archive_info with ,
    data set_name create_date create_time firstrec_date firstrec_time
    lastrec_date lastrec_time total_recs ops_subsys mvs_smfid jobname,
     "~" archive_info
     /*   do whatever is needed with the data   */
 end   /*   do while archive_info <> " "   */
