This table shows the record layout for type 123 SMF records
(Audit Interceptor).

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

Purpose: SMF type 123, subtype 1 records are generated by the z/OS Connect EE audit interceptor. They record request activity to the SMF data store on z/OS operating systems.

It's easy to report on SMF 123 data!

We have a low-cost 4GL report writer especially for SMF files. It's called Spectrum SMF Writer.

Spectrum SMF Writer handles the difficult SMF record parsing for you automatically. You just specify which fields you want to see.

Spectrum SMF Writer also converts the arcane date and time fields and reformats them into an attractive report.

Plus, Spectrum SMF Writer can export SMF data as comma delimited files to use on your PC.
