SMF type 30 has a lot more granularity than the message. If you submit an RFE, 
I advise that you not ask to have all of those data in the message. OTOH, a ew 
more fileds wouldn't hurt.

Subject: Re: CPU time cost of dynamic allocation

Thanks. I don't have MXG but I am super familiar with SMF concepts, reading the 
SMF documentation, "decoding" SMF triplets and so forth. I see the following:

12 C SMF30ICU 4 binary Initiator CPU time under the task control block (TCB), 
in hundredths
of a second. This field is set at step termination.
SMF30ICU = SMF30ICU_STEP_INIT (for this step) +
SMF30ICU_STEP_TERM (from the previous step)

SMF type 30's contain the start and end time of the allocation process for the 
initiator.
I cannot specifically recall whether the CPU time for this process is broken 
out into a specific bucket, or can be calculated.
I you have MXG, Barry Merrill has a lot of doc in this area.

Can you please clarify? Your first sentence seems to say that SVC 99 (or do you 
mean Initiator) CPU time is in the SMF 30? Can you be more specific?

Your last sentence seems to say the opposite? Or ... ?

Charles

This allocation time can be calculated from SMF type 30.
I am sure time is tracked. I am not sure the associated CPU is tracked.
