#1
If the LDEV section emulation type is 3390-V, only the field for configuration information is valid. The field for performance information is invalid.
#2
Value derived by calculating the difference between the value of this field and the value of the corresponding field of the directly preceding SMF record for which both the record type and the record subtype are the same. Dividing this value by the value of the SMFRSETM field (the time elapsed since the previous interval) of the product section gives the average for one hundredth of a second. If a record was not output at the preceding interval, a record will also not be output at the next interval.
