Duh, Go to OFFSET and INPUT the LENGTH field.

It is very common for SMF "Triplets" of Offset, Length, and Count to
populate the OFFSET, but to not populate the Count for segments that do not
exist in the record.  And there can be more than one triplets with that same
OFFSET populated but with Counts zero.

It is also common to see segments that are present with OFFSET and COUNT
populated but with the LENGTH zero, which means you have to go to OFFSET and
INPUT the count field to process those segments.

If you are using MXG with SAS, its likely you might need an update there?

Hello; 

     We have upgraded from a Z14 to Z15 processor, and, have experienced
something curious regarding the SMF TYPE 30 section being generated for
Connect Direct as well as Tibco's MFT 8.0 file transfer products.  

Both products are enabled to use ZEDC compression, but, when generating SAS
reports from SMF type 30 records, we  see   SMF30USO{Offset to zEDC usage
statistics Section} and the, SMF30USL{Length of zEDC usage statistics
Section}  containing data.  

We do not see the SMF30USN{Number of zEDC usage statistics sections} having
data.  This has been noticed since upgrading from a z14 to a z15 processor.
Has anyone else seen anything like this in their environment running MFT 8.0
or Connect Direct ?
