If you really want to find this value in RMF, you have to look at R791NFFS
which is a field in SMF type 79 (RMF II), subtype 1 (Address Space State Data).
Since it's not listed in the RMF tool in ISPF, you have to call the RMF
interface ERBSMFI and interpret its output. Nice little programming
For what it is worth, the normalization figures are also in IWMWRCAA and
IWMWRQAA which map the areas returned by the WLM services IWMRCOLL and IWMRQRY
respectively.
Note that both services require supervisor state or execution key 0-7
