Hi,

Regarding FILE CLOSE event logging, please keep in mind that if you want
the I/O information which is logged in these records that it includes only
I/O performed through the file system.  In the old days, we could use
these records to keep track of all I/O's against a file to determine things
like what detail data sets should be reorg'd first, what files should be
placed where, what files shouldn't be placed where and so on.  But now
that the heaviest database access is done via mapped file access, this
information is no longer stored in the file close records.

For those of you threading, I apologize for starting a new thread but
you probably aren't reading this anyway.  :-)
