In my SMF experience ...

If the triplet offset or count field is zero then the segment does not
exist. End of story.

If the triplet length field is zero then
- For most SMF record types that means the segment does not exist.
- For Db2, and perhaps a few other types, it means each segment contains its
own length in the first halfword.
