SMF Type 10 Record

This table shows the record layout for type 10 SMF records
(Allocation Recovery).

List of other SMF record layouts available.
List of sample SMF reports.

Purpose: Record type 10 is written after a successful device allocation recovery.

This record identifies the device that is made available by device class, unit type, channel address, and unit address. It identifies the job requiring the allocation job log identification and user identification.

Note: This record is produced only when the response to message IEF238D is a device number. This record is not produced for any other responses.

It's easy to report on SMF 10 data!

(Offset from beginning of record: 44)
00SMF10DEV4structure
Device identification. Note: Virtual I/O devices are identified by the following: Device Class 0 Unit Type 0 Device Number X'7FFF'It is important to understand the following: Allocation messages for VIO data sets will show VIO ALLOCATED TO ddname. SMF records will show VIO unit addresses as X'7FFF'. The actual in-storage UCB built for VIO will show address X'3FFF'.For example, the messages: v IEF237I X'3FFF' ALLOCATED TO ddname v IEF237I X'7FFF' ALLOCATED TO ddnameindicate that ddname is not allocated to a Virtual I/O device, but is instead allocated to a real device whose unit address is X'3FFF' or X'7FFF' respectively.
00SMF10DUT2binary
Device class and unit type.
22SMF10CUA2binary
Device number.
