    In support of XES APAR OA60650 the z/OS Data Gatherer collects
    additional buffer summary group related statistics. These new
    metrics are made available with Coupling Facility control code
    level 25 and are stored in the Processor Utilization data
    section of SMF record type 74.4.
    When APAR OA61041 is installed, SMF type 74 subtype 4 records
    with SMF record level x'8F' are produced.
