Syntax rules for SMFPRMxx

The following rules apply to the creation of SMFPRMxx:

Use columns 1 through 72; however, avoid using column 72 when system symbols are coded on the same line.
Avoid embedded blanks.
Comments can appear in columns 1-71 and must begin with /* and end with */.
Enter each parameter in the format: keyword(value)
Indicate continuation by placing a comma after the last entry on a record, followed by a blank before column 72.
Limit SMFPRMxx to no more than 897 lines. If you exceed this limit, the system ignores the values specified in SMFPRMxx and uses default values instead. In addition, the system issues an informational message to the operator, indicating that SMFPRMxx is too large and that default values are to be used instead.

For a filter to have both MSG and DROP processing, the DROP filter will not be processed until the MSG filter has already been hit.

The following statements show an example of how to specify the syntax:

SID(3090),ACTIVE, 
DSNAME(SYS1.MANA,SYS1.MANB,SYS1.MANC), 
JWT(0030),SYS(TYPE(00:120),NOEXITS, 
INTERVAL(004000),DETAIL)

In this next example, IFASMF.STREAM1 will use a maximum of 256M of buffer space and IFASMF.STREAM2 will use up to 1024M.

DSPSIZMAX(1024M) 
LSNAME(IFASMF.STREAM1,TYPE(30,89),DSPSIZMAX(256M)) 
LSNAME(IFASMF.STREAM1,TYPE(127:255))
