TN3270E server does not record SMF Type 119 subtype 23 records

Question & Answer


Question

The SMFCONFIG configuration statement in the TCPIP profile is set up for TYPE119 records. The Telnet server configuration file contains SMFINIT TYPE119 and SMFTERM TYPE119 statements. Why are subtype 23 records not being generated for the connections from remote clients?

Answer

SMF 119 subtype 23 (TSO Telnet Client Session Termination) records are only generated by the z/OS Telnet client. Remote connections to the TN3270E server will not generate subtype 23 records. Connections from remote clients to the TN3270E server are captured in subtype 21 (TN3270 Server SNA Session Termination Hostname) records, which are generated when the SNA session starts and ends for a Telnet client.
