MXG creates a SUBTYPE for the many SMF records that contain a logical subtype 
that is not contained in the standard SMF Header, including fields like the
SMF 80 RACF EVENT Code and the SMF 100-102 DB2 IFCID value.

Peter,

The type 80 record doesn't have subtypes. 55 is an event code, and event code 
is a field in the 80 record. I do not know if MXG is aware of and can select 
records based on type 80 event codes. If your RACF team converts SMF 80 records 
to text format using RACF's SMF unload utility, you can try searching the 
unload file for UMNTFSYS events - the text equivalent of event code 55.

Various RACF auditing options determine whether such an event would be logged, 
and such options may not have been in effect when the event occurred, hence no 
record.

Since the NOTYPE ranges do not exclude 80 records, you are correct that they 
are being collected. Also look for SUBSYS settings that might be excluding them 
for certain subsystems.

Regards, Bob

Subject: Re: How to find what performed an OMVS unmount?

Thanks for the suggestion on this topic. I have discovered that the LPAR that 
this un-mount occurred on does not cut type 92 (USS) records so I will be 
unable to use them to figure what un-mounted my file.

Setting: SYS(NOTYPE(16:19,62:69,92)

With the help of MXG staff, I was able to run a MXG report looking for type 80 
(RACF) sub type 55 records, I did not find any. To me this means that either 
there were no un-mounts during the time period of the input or no sub type 55 
records are cut. Is the above setting what controls the sub type records cut? 
Type 80 is not excluded so it’s being cut, is the default all 80 sub types?
