Well, I did say they were RACF users.

ACF2 does not generally cut Type 80 records, although its default Type 230
record could be overridden to 80 if the customer desired. (TSS by default
does cut Type 80 records.) This does not look like an ACF2 record; I would
recognize that. The record is very much "RACF-like." It is in fact a valid
"RACF" Type 80 record, although there is a lot of unaccounted for data in
the middle. Because of the pointer architecture of the RACF record layout,
extra data in the middle does not affect the validity of the  layout of the
"RACF-like" portions.

Well, there's "anything" if you count APF. But your point is well taken --
it could be almost any program or product cutting an SMF 80 record. It would
not have to be a security product or a "RACF add-on."

Nobody has mentioned ACF2 yet. Is that a possibility?

In principle I don't think there's anything stopping ANY software from
confecting SMF 80 records.
