READ2EOF

This operand forces CICS PA to process all records in the SMF file through to EOF. Normally CICS PA stops reading the SMF file as soon as the first record is encountered that is later than SMFSTOP. However, if the file is not in ascending time sequence, reading might end before all records earlier than SMFSTOP have been found.

This option is only effective when SMFSTOP is specified. Select it when the SMF file has been presorted and you want to ensure that all records within the SMFSTART and SMFSTOP time range are processed.
