Apologies - I misunderstood, thinking that your point contributed:  
"..Logstream for DB2" -- was about DB2 technology (its use of LOGR/LOGSTREAMs) 
and not more accurately to your point about "SMF Logstream for DB2".

Only to presume say an hourly SMF/IFASMFDL offload (e.g., mostly large-volumes 
with SMF 101 ACCOUNTING, also CICS, MQ, more recently zConnect, WAS/ODM andy 
beyond), you can use MXG/ALTAIR-SLC (ok, or SAS) to analyze SMF type 23 
activity per LPAR / SMF LOGSTREAM.  As well, the CFSIZER can help with your 
quest.
