SMF Type 19 Structure

edit

The SMF type 19 contains data of all DASD volumes online in an LPAR during the time the SMF record is written. There is one record per volume. SMF Type 19 records are written for every processed SWITCH SMF command. This is usually once a day shortly after midnight, but could occur more often during the day, depending on your installation. Therefore it is very important to preselect the SMF dump data in the SYSIN statement of the JCL precisely to avoid processing redundant DASD data in the REXX program. In the example in the first chapter the data selection was confined to the time between midnight and one o'clock in the morning to reflect this.

The structure of the SMF type 19 record is relatively simple. It consists of just one section with the usual offsets to fields.

For more information on field values and offsets see [L1] or [L2].


SMF Record Field Values directly usable or used in the "Derived Values" Table

Value Description
SMF19SID System ID
SMF19VOL VOLSER
SMF19CUU UCB Number
SMF19SPC Unallocated cylinders of the volume
SMF19SPT Unallocated tracks of the volume
SMF19TRK Total tracks of the volume


Derived Values

Value Formula and Description
Cyls_total Cyls_total = SMF19TRK / 15

Total cylinders of the volume.
A 3390 disk volume contains 15 tracks per cylinder

GB_total GB_total = (Cyls_total * 849960) / (1024 * 1024 * 1024)

Total space of the volume in gigabyte.
A 3390 disk volume contains 56,664 bytes per track, 15 tracks per cylinder and 849,960 Bytes per cylinder

GB_free GB_free = ((SMF19SPC * 15) + SMF19SPT) * (GB_total / SMF19TRK)

Free space of the volume in gigabyte
A 3390 disk volume contains 15 tracks per cylinder

GB_alloc GB_alloc = GB_total - GB_free
Allocated space of the volume in gigabyte
DASD_Model

When SMF19TRK = 16695 then DASD_Model = '3390 Model 1'
When SMF19TRK = 33390 then DASD_Model = '3390 Model 2'
When SMF19TRK = 50085 then DASD_Model = '3390 Model 3'
When SMF19TRK = 150255 then DASD_Model = '3390 Model 9'
When SMF19TRK = 491400 then DASD_Model = '3390 Model 27'
When SMF19TRK = 982800 then DASD_Model = '3390 Model 54'
Otherwise DASD_Model = 'other'

Because we know the number of total tracks of the different 3390 DASD models, a simple select of the value of SMF19TRK is necessary to choose the right DASD model
