.As we evaluate this item, we would like to understand further what is meant by 'last encrypted and decrypted' dates are requested. For example, on output processing, would 'date last encrypted' imply when the data set key label was initially used to write to the data set or you actually would want it updated on every open for output? On input processing, would 'date last decrypted' imply when the data set was last read (that is, every open for input)? Could SMF records provide this type of information, or would you want to rely on the encryption cell? Based on the re-key scenario described, more information is requested as to the anticipated logic on how this information would be used. Thank you.
