Luis, Thank you for the private "thank you" in which you indicated that your second question was "what type of events were being logged".
As I mentioned, it is every type of SMF record *except* those excluded by the NOTYPE specification. You will see very many types described in the SMF manual - starting with the contents description for Chapter 13[1]. However you should be aware that you may have products logging SMF records which are not described here. The point is that SMF, as you can see from other parts of the manual, has an API for logging system management records. I believe the rule is that IBM is allowed to use the numbers 0 to 127 and 128 to 255 are for customer/vendor use. If a vendor creates SMF records it makes sense that it would be possible to select the SMF record type number so that clashes can be avoided. Here's a little point regarding SMF I used to promote during classes: If you are keen to produce your own SMF records and you are in a NetView environment, NetView supplies a tool which provides for just this - in a very simple way. The VPDLOG command, while appearing to be specific to "vital product data", is actually quite general. [1] You will find that often in the SMF manual the type is mentioned in the contents but when you take a look you will find a reference to the product manual, for example, NPM. The product manual will have the full description of the SMF record.
