One problem with finding docs is that IBM overloads the term Subsystem. SMF
uses the term to mean roughly the set {batch jobs, started tasks, TSO sessions,
...} plus the meaning @John is describing. I think there may also be some other
meanings.

Example is File 290 on the CBT. Go here: http://cbttape.org/cbtdowns.htm
or download directly: http://cbttape.org/ftp/cbt/CBT290.zip
On z/OS UNIX command prompt:
curl http://cbttape.org/ftp/cbt/CBT290.zip >CBT290.zip jar -xvf CBT290.zip cp
-B -W "seqparms='SPACE=(TRK,(10,2)),RECFM=FB,LRECL=80'" FILE290.XMI
"//'some.ps.dsn'"
# on TSO, do a RECEIVE INDATASET(...) on the 'some.pds.dsn' to create PDS
