Setting the SMFRECORDNUMBER Parameter

The value of the CA OPS/MVS SMFRECORDNUMBER parameter determines the type of SMF records produced. This value must be a number between 128 and 255, denoting a user-type SMF record.

To set the SMFRECORDNUMBER parameter, invoke the OPSPRM function of OPS/REXX as shown:

var = OPSPRM("SET","SMFRECORDNUMBER","value")

Note: Two or more CA OPS/MVS subsystems running on two or more z/OS systems can safely use the same SMF record number. This is because the header of each record identifies both the SMF ID of the system and the CA OPS/MVS subsystem ID.
