Appendix C. CMF Type 79 API
The CMF Type 79 application program interface (API) provides an interface to SMF type 79
records for use by CMFMON and other performance tools. For example, SDSF 1.3.3 displays
certain fields from SMF records 79-1 and 79-2 using the CMF Type 79 API. In addition,
performance monitors, such as Candle’s OMEGAMON, have also adopted the CMF Type 79
API to display data concerning device utilization, page/swap data set activity, and channel path
utilization.
See Chapter 5, “Using the CMF MONITOR APIs”, in the CMF MONITOR Batch User Guide
and Reference (TD-50J) for details about the CMF APIs.
