IBM has now closed this APAR OA45767 to address incorrect SMF 30 zEDC usage section data/statistics reporting specifically for PGM=IFASMFDL (SMF log stream offload processing). Also, there is additional zEDC intermittent failure with S002-F6 ABENDs, which IBM has also corrected in the recent past.
IBM z System sites should at least be aware of SMF log stream exploitation opportunities, benefits, those to include zEDC data compression (all SMF types possibly, not just those supported by say CICS, DB2) -- with SMF data recorded, at one site we support, an 8-to-1 size decrease was observed, as compared to legacy SMF MAN file recording.
Those individuals interested in further discussion can contact me directly.
