    Dear Amarjeet Kumar

    The datagen command at some time in the past required data from LLNL.
    This data was and is not distributed with SAC. If you need seismic
    data you
    can use the "funcgen seismogram" command. It will generate a
    seismogram for
    you without any extra data.

    I will guess you will have a difficult time getting the data from
    LLNL as they do not
    support SAC now. The distribution is being handled by IRIS.

    If you really need to data within datagen, I am sure we can find an
    old distribution somewhere
    which contains the data associated with this command.
