SMF Record Types
Here is a list of the most common SMF record types:
- RMF records are in the range 70 through to 79. RMF's records are generally supplemented - for serious performance analysis - by Type 30 (subtypes 2 and 3) address space records.
- RACF type 80 records are written to record security issues, i.e. password violations, denied resource access attempts, etc. Other security systems such as ACF2 also use the type 80 and 81 SMF records.
- SMF type 89 records indicate software product usage and are used to calculate reduced sub-capacity software pricing.
- DB2 writes type 100, 101 and 102 records, depending on specific DB2 subsystem options.
- CICS writes type 110 records, depending on specific CICS options.
- Websphere MQ writes type 115 and 116 records, depending on specific Websphere MQ subsystem options.
- WebSphere Application Server for z/OS writes type 120. Version 7 introduced a new subtype to overcome shortcomings in the earlier subtype records. The new Version 7 120 Subtype 9 record provide a unified request-based view with lower overhead.

Famous quotes containing the words record and/or types:
“The first thing which I can record concerning myself is, that I was born.... These are wonderful words. This life, to which neither time nor eternity can bring diminution—this everlasting living soul, began. My mind loses itself in these depths.”
—Margaret Oliphant (1828–1897)
“If there is nothing new on the earth, still the traveler always has a resource in the skies. They are constantly turning a new page to view. The wind sets the types on this blue ground, and the inquiring may always read a new truth there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
