There is no separate SMF record written when data is sent to the JES SPOOL.
And Type 6 records are be written by JES2 or by some SYSOUT processing packages; some packages that manage spooled output for viewing and/or printing write their own SMF User SMF records.

Does anyone know if any SMF records are created for the process of writing to the SYSOUT file? Record type 15 is not written for data sets defined as SYSOUT data sets on DD statements. A user is complaining about a 15 minute delay in her print process showing up in the JES3 queue and beginning to print on the VPS printer. The VPS print time matches the SMF 6 record time. JESYSMSG shows following type output with no timestamps on the messages: IEF237I JES3 ALLOCATED TO SYSOUT IEF285I CTTH441.SDB1.JOB07555.D0000032.? SYSOUT -- Donald J.
