Charles:

About 30 years ago we had an online CICS region that had 1000+ DD statements for 3270's. Our SMF processing program burped on the type 4 (several times). It was written in COBOL and I learned quite a bit on how the program handled the situation (and it wasn't pretty). As others have indicated IBM did some quick changes so others wouldn't have to handle these odd SMF layouts. Luckily nowdays the issue is semi forklore as the number of 3270's have been transferred over to VTAM. and are probably no longer being generated.

You want to send me a dump of the Type 30 record off-list I can take a quick look at it.

Subject: Re: EXCP Counts in SMF Exit

I have considered that I/O to the DB2 data base might be accounted for by DB2. Maybe even the tape I/O, but that seems a stretch. But the job also does I/O to conventional files like STEPLIB and SYSIN, which is reported by the SMF exit for other steps in the same job. My money is on the structure of the SMF record presented to the exit in this particular step.
