The fields you show look to me as if they partly contain EBCDIC data. E.g. the 
first field has x'E2E3C5D7' which is c'STEP'. Has there been any zEDC 
compression in that step? If not, the section is not there and you are looking 
at random data.

Betreff: Odd SMF 30 data within IEFACTRT Datum: 04.11.17, 19:18


I've been looking at various data available within the IEFACTRT exit's SMF 30 
record.
We're running zOS 2.2 and are quite current on maintenance.
I must note that this is on a zPDT box which may or may not make a difference.

The data that I find odd is in the "zEDC Usage Statistics Section".
Here are the fields in the section and their HEX values:
SMF30_US_ComprReq                                     200F2A40E2E3C5D7
SMF30_US_ComprReq_Prob                             D3C9C24000000009
SMF30_US_QueueTime                                    7FF8000000000000
SMF30_US_ExecTime                                       000000007FF80000
SMF30_US_Def_UncomprIn                              0000E2E8E2D7D9C9
SMF30_US_Def_ComprOut                               D5E3000000000000
SMF30_US_Inf_ComprIn                                  0000000000000000
SMF30_US_Inf_DecomprOut                            00000000200F2A3F

The EXECTime and QueueTime are supposed to be in microseconds.
Why does one have "7FF80000" in the 1st word and the other have it in the 2nd 
word?
ComprReq is the total number of compressions & decompressions (problem and 
supervisor state).
ComprReq_Prob is the number in problem state.  Shouldn't it be a subset of 
ComprReq?

I'm not sure what other fields are incorrect.  Does anyone else find these odd 
or is it just me?

Thanks,
Dan
