Keep in mind that SMF records are cut by applications or components that choose to do so. It's not automatic. SMF is a record manager, not a creator. In particular, SFTP is an add-on product that is not related to FTP(S) or TCP/IP. It may or may not create SMF records. If it does, it's almost certainly the same records type for every transmission.

An hour later, they transmit the same file with the SAME file name, overwriting the original file. 1. What SMF Record Type was cut when the first file was transmitted? 2. Is another SMF Record cut for the overwrite and is it the SAME SMF Record Type as the original? If not, what SMF Record Type is cut?
