Displaying record definitions and control parameters (Option S.2)

Overview

The product database includes information on the structure of the SMF record subtypes written by this product. You can use option S.2 to display information on each subtype. You can display the field structure and you can display the corresponding control parameters used in _beta smf reports. Option S.2 also enables you to create your own report definitions based on the record information of each subtype.

Note: _beta access displays structures of selected IBM SMF records under this option.

Navigation

To display which SMF record information is available in the database:

  • Choose option S.2 and specify your selection criteria:
    • For Beta Systems products: Vendor = Beta, Product = Bnn, Subtype = nnn (or masks)
    • For other vendors, e.g. IBM: Vendor = IBM, Record Type = nnn

    All matching entries are displayed in the Record Definitions table.
