The writing of each record to SMF is controlled by a configuration option defined in the CICSLOGR parmlib member. The following table shows the relationship between an SMF record and the corresponding SMF-RECORD-TYPE configuration option.
The default SMF record type for all SYSVIEW records is 255. The record layouts or DSECTS can be found in the MACLIB members.
