Layout of an SMF type 115 record

The standard layout for SMF records involves three parts:

SMF header
Provides format, identification, and time and date information about the record itself.
Self-defining section
Defines the location and size of the individual data records within the SMF record.
Data records
The actual data from WebSphere MQ that you want to analyze.

For more information about SMF record formats, see the MVS(TM) System Management Facilities (SMF) manual.
