For what it is worth, the normalization figures are also in IWMWRCAA and 
IWMWRQAA which map the areas returned by the WLM services IWMRCOLL and IWMRQRY 
respectively.

Note that both services require supervisor state or execution key 0-7

Subject: Re: How can we get the normalization factors R723NFFI / R723NFFS / 
SMF70NRM numbers out of RMF?

If you really want to find this value in RMF, you have to look at R791NFFS 
which is a field in SMF type 79 (RMF II), subtype 1 (Address Space State Data).
Since it's not listed in the RMF tool in ISPF, you have to call the RMF 
interface ERBSMFI and interpret its output. Nice little programming work, 
colleague of mine did it using a small ASM interface for the call and PL/I for 
interpretation.

Obviously, you can also read SMF records, using a REXX, Assembler, COBOL or 
PL/I program to get this information. I can provide you a little PL/I program 
for reading SMF type 70 if this helps you.

Also obviously, the zIIP normalization factor is a constant, determined at IPL 
time and stored anywhere in the memory where it can be read by RMF and SMF. 
However, I did not find any hint so far where to search in memory. The 
published Data Areas don't provide this factor.
