Wasting more time searching the internet about zEDC I came across several articles about SMF record compression when using log streams. It sounded almost like you did not need the zEDC Express software feature. So, I coded compress for the TECH LPAR, and did a SET SMF=xx. It failed with IFA730E. So, I guess not so lucky with SMF :(
