Layout of an SMF type 115 record
We can use this section as a reference for the format of an SMF type 115 record.
The standard layout for SMF records involves three parts:
- SMF header
- Provides format, identification, and time and date information about the record itself.
- Self-defining section
- Defines the location and size of the individual data records within the SMF record.
- Data records
- The actual data from IBM MQ to analyze.
For more information about SMF record formats, see the MVS System Management Facilities (SMF) manual.
