I converted to LOGSTREAM with relative ease a few months back and I have not regretted it. I followed a document called "Migrating SMF from Data Set Recording to Log Stream Logging," and it worked like a charm. I created several log streams (CICS, DB2, RMF, etc) and it has made life easier for all.
