5.2.12.3 WEBWUD Usage Considerations

 
 The WEBWUD file contains the contents of the user data
 sections in the SMF 120 subtype 9 records.  There can be up
 to five 2K byte free-form user sections.  It was not
 practical to put this information into the WEB Request
 Activity (WEBWRA) file.  However this information might be
 needed for special studies.
 
 The WEBWUD file is typically merged with another file like
 the WEB Request Activity (WEBWRA) file typically by SYSID and
 Enclave Token (WEBCY) to associate the user data to its
 associated web request record.
 
 The user data field (WUDFH) contains information passed to
 the SMF record from the application through an API that might
 identify the following about the application: what the
 request asked for, what was retrieved, the business purpose,
 and so on.
 
 This information is only valid at the Detail level, and
 merged with other files at the Detail level.
