IEFU83/4/5 and now 6. NOT for the faint-hearted. Re-entered on multiple processors in a variety of TCB and SRB and X-memory modes. If I did not need real time and back-level z/OS support I would do it some other way.

You don't want to process records in the exit code as it affects all address spaces. Or convince your user to go to SMF LOGSTREAMs and use SMF real-time callable services. Never played with IXGBRWSE.

IXGBRWSE is a documented interface. Is there an explanation for the log block format? Is the data compressed somehow? I could dynamically allocate and use IFASEXIT I imagine but the sysplex logger services are there and defined for use. I need to understand the log block format to break it out into SMF record data.

They return SMF data in the form of SMF records rather than the entire log block of information.
