Might these be not "broken", but continuation records? For example. when TYPE30 records have more DD segments than will fit in a record, continuation records are written with some sections of the TYPE30 omitted in the continuation records. However, the identification section is present in the continuation records to allow proper identification of the task related to the additional DD segments.

To All,
For SMF types 70-79 (RMF), RMF may create broken records because the volume of data can't fit in 32K.
    So there may be 2 or more "broken" records created.
I have an IBM sample file that has the original unbroken record split into 3 broken records.
    The records are consecutive in the sample file.
But I am getting the records in my SMF exit and I must save the broken records to put them together at a later time. There doesn't seem to be a unique identifier in the product section connecting the 3 records.
    I will use the SMF type/subtype/date/time in the SMF header for now.
    But the time in 100ths of seconds doesn't seem granular enough to me.
    Can someone help me here ?
Thanks in advance, Pierre.
