Thanks. I have compared the two files SMF and HSMLOG, and if you line up the HSMLOG with the SMF 241 record then the data is the same .
If you start at byte 29 of the HSMLOG record then this matches up correctly with the SMF TYPE 241 record.

What information are you seeking in the HSMLOGX/Y? If you have sas and MXG at your shop, I think (I am not sure) that MXG might have a format. Though I could be wrong on that. I typically just use the tools that IBM provides to format the records.
