John: you should visit the proffered url as it might give you some experiment
ideas. It contains JCL to generate the class by taking the expanded assembler
macro text and running it through another class. Once you have the class
generated, I expect (not able to try it, tho') that it could be run off the
mainframe with your downloaded SMF data.
Worth a little investigation. ('specially since you could probably used any of
the other supplied macros for all the other SMF layouts.) For that matter, you
might be able to run the generator off z/OS using the macro text as input.
