smf type 30-5 records:
If you want DFSORT to extract the values from Raw SMF data then what

the SMF-30
Record mapping? Remember the raw smf have variable length segments
where
the offset and the length are stored in the record and you need
dynamically access the information which would require an addition
pass of
data.
Due to the variable length segment issue, just using Sort Cards to
map the file is not going to fly well. IMO, the simplest way of
extracting the needed fields is to just have someone who is capable
of writing simple Assembler code to just write a program to extract
the fields and output a simple file with them. This file can then
be sent through the sort which consolidates and counts them to
output a report whenever a field changes.
I know that you are looking for a way to have sort handle all the
work, but doing the record selection/parsing is better delegated to
something that can locate the data. Back in the when I was still
coding, this type of task was one that I would toss off as a
Quick&Dirty project in an hour or two.
I don't know off the top of my head but EASYTRIEVE ($) can do it
without even breaking a sweat in probably 6 or 7 lines of code (or
less).
SAS should be able to do it as well ($$$$$$).
