Abstract
According to aspects of the present disclosure, archived system management facility (SMF) data may be verified against a signature, even if the data to be verified against the signature is split among two or more history files. When archiving an SMF data dump, an indication is kept that includes locations of signatures found while a system management facility (SMF) data dump is being archived. For example, the indication may be kept in metadata of the history file (e.g., in the history file itself, a status block outside the history file, a collective index, etc.). Then when extracting the archived data, if the data corresponding to a signature is in a different history file, the data corresponding to the signature from all of the history files is concatenated for verification.
