Header/Self-defining Section

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

Offsets Name Length Format Description
0 0 SMF5LEN 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 SMF5SEG 2 binary Segment descriptor (see record length field).
4 4 SMF5FLG 1 binary System indicator:
Bit
Meaning when set
0-2
Reserved.
3-6
Version indicators (see Standard SMF record header for details).
7
Reserved.
5 5 SMF5RTY 1 binary Record type 5 (X'05').
6 6 SMF5TME 4 binary Time since midnight, in hundredths of a second, that the record was moved into the SMF buffer.
10 A SMF5DTE 4 packed Date when the record is passed to the SMF writer, in the form 0cyydddF. See Standard SMF record header for a detailed description. This is the date that the job terminated.
14 E SMF5SID 4 EBCDIC System identification (from the SID parameter).
18 12 SMF5JBN 8 EBCDIC Job name. The job name, time, and date that the reader recognized the JOB card (for this job) constitute the job log identification, or transaction name (for APPC output).
26 1A SMF5RST 4 binary Time since midnight, in hundredths of a second, that the reader recognized the JOB card (for this job).
30 1E SMF5RSD 4 packed Date when the reader recognized the JOB card (for this job), in the form 0cyydddF. See Standard SMF record header for a detailed description.
34 22 SMF5UIF 8 EBCDIC User-defined identification field (taken from common exit parameter area, not from USER=parameter on job statement).
42 2A SMF5NST 1 binary Number of steps in the job.
43 2B SMF5JIT 4 binary Time since midnight, in hundredths of a second, that the initiator selected the job.
47 2F SMF5JID 4 packed Date when the initiator selected the job, in the form 0cyydddF. See Standard SMF record header for a detailed description.
51 33 SMF5NCI 4 binary Number of card-image records in DD DATA and DD* data sets read by the reader for the job.
55 37 SMF5JCC 2 binary Job completion code:

X'0ccc' indicates system ABEND in the last job step where ccc is the system ABEND code (see z/OS MVS System Codes).

X'8ccc' indicates user ABEND in the last job step where ccc is the user ABEND code.

X'nnnn' indicates normal completion where nnnn is the contents of the two low-order bytes in register 15 at termination.

X'0000' indicates either: (see note)
  1. The last job step was flushed (not processed) because of an error during allocation or in a preceding job step, or
  2. normal job completion with a return code of 0.
Note: When a step in a multi-step job terminates abnormally, the subsequent steps, whether executed or flushed, do not propagate the step abend code for processing this record. The code appears in the job termination record (type 4). In this case, the field - SMF5JCC, can contain X'nnnn'. If an abend occurred in the job, the job termination indicator (bit 6 in the SMF5JBTI field) is set to 1.

Use this field in conjunction with the job termination indicator field, SMFJBTI.

57 39 SMF5JPTY 1 binary Job selection priority. This field normally equals the user-assigned priority of zero to 13, but if the job fails while being scheduled, this field equals 14 (taken from the PRTY parameter on the JOB card). If no value is specified for the PRTY parameter on the JOB card, this field contains:
  • For JES3, the default priority specified on the JES3 STANDARDS initialization card
  • For JES2, a zero.

Note that JES2 does not use the priority value reported in this field.

58 3A SMF5RSTT 4 binary Time since midnight, in hundredths of a second, that the reader recognized the end of the job.
62 3E SMF5RSTD 4 packed Date when the reader recognized the end of the job, in the form 0cyydddF. See Standard SMF record header for a detailed description.
66 42 SMF5JBTI 1 binary

67 43 SMF5MCI 1   Reserved.
68 44 SMF5TRAN 4 binary Job transaction residency time, in 1024-microsecond units. That is the total amount of time the transaction was in central storage.
72 48 SMF5CKRE 1   Reserved.
73 49 SMF5RDCL 1 binary Reader device class. (This field is not filled in for jobs submitted by way of an internal reader.)
74 4A SMF5RUTY 1 binary Reader unit type. (This field is not filled in for jobs submitted by way of an internal reader.)
75 4B SMF5JICL 1 EBCDIC Job input class (taken from JOB card; default equals ‘A’).
76 4C SMF5SPK 1 binary Storage protect key, in the form xxxx0000 where xxxx is the key.
77 4D SMF5SRBT 3 binary Job CPU time under SRBs, in hundredths of a second. This field includes the CPU time for various supervisory routines that are dispatched from SRBs: locking routines, page resolution, swap control, cross-memory communications (WAIT, POST, I/0 POST), and TQE scheduling.
80 50 SMF5TJS 4 binary Job service, in service units.
84 54 SMF5TTAT 4 binary Job transaction active time, in 1024-microsecond units.

117 75 SMF5JCPU 3 binary Reserved.
120 78 SMF5ACTF 1 binary Number of accounting fields.
121 79 SMF5JSAF variable EBCDIC Accounting fields. Each entry for an accounting field contains the length of the field (one byte, binary) followed by the field (EBCDIC). A zero indicates an omitted field.
