This section contains the common SMF record headers fields and the triplet fields (offset/length/number), if applicable, that locate the other sections on the record.

Offsets Name Length Format Description
0 0 SMFNJLEN 2 binary Record length. This field and the next field (total of four bytes) form the RDW (record descriptor word). See Standard SMF record header for a detailed description.
2 2 SMFNJDES 2 binary Segment descriptor (see record length field).
4 4 SMFNJFLG 1 binary System indicator:
Bit
Meaning when set
0-2
Reserved
3-6
Version indicators (See Standard SMF record header for a detailed description.)
7
Reserved.
5 5 SMFNJRTY 1 binary Record type 57 (X'39').
6 6 SMFNJTME 4 binary Time since midnight, in hundredths of a second, that the record was moved into the SMF buffer.
10 A SMFNJDTE 4 packed Date when the record was moved into the SMF buffer, in the form 0cyydddF. See Standard SMF record header for a detailed description.
14 E SMFSYSID 4 EBCDIC System identifier (from the SID parameter).
18 12 SMFSUBID 2 binary Subsystem identifier — X'0005' signifies JES3.
20 14   2   Reserved.
22 16 SMFNJLRR 2 binary Length of the record following this field.
24 18 SMFNJETM 4 binary Transmission start time, in hundredths of a second.
28 1C SMFNJEDT 4 packed Transmission start date, in packed decimal form.
32 20 SMFNJIND 2 EBCDIC Job type indicator
  • JB — indicates data is a job stream
  • OP — indicates data is a SYSOUT data stream.
34 22 SMFNJNAM 8 EBCDIC Job name, or transaction name (for APPC output).
42 2A SMFNJNUM 4 EBCDIC Current JES3-assigned job number if less than 10,000. If the job number is equal to or greater than 10,000, this field contains character zeroes, and the job number appears in SMFNJJID.
46 2E SMFNJONM 4 binary Original job number (from submitting node), or transaction ID (for APPC output).
50 32 SMFNJPGM 20 EBCDIC Programmer name.

78 4E SMFNJACT 8 EBCDIC Networking account number.
86 56 SMFNJDPT 8 EBCDIC Department number.
94 5E SMFNJBLD 8 EBCDIC Building number.
102 66 SMFNJLOC 8 EBCDIC Location number.
110 6E SMFNJORG 8 EBCDIC Job origin.
118 76 SMFNJRMT 8 EBCDIC Secondary job origin.
126 7E SMFNJXEQ 8 EBCDIC Processing node name.
134 86 SMFNJEXU 8 EBCDIC Processing user identifier, or user associated with the transaction (for APPC output).
142 8E SMFNJDST 8 EBCDIC Destination node name.
150 96 SMFNJPTH 8 EBCDIC Transmission path node name.
158 9E SMFNJRCT 4 binary Record count.
162 A2 SMFNJCNT 4 binary Compressed byte count.
166 A6 SMFNJTRN 4 binary Transmission buffer count.
170 AA SMFNJJID 8 EBCDIC JES3-assigned job number in JOBxxxxx format.
