Several of the procedures unique to SMF return information to buffers you identify
when you call them:
This sub-section describes the information retrieved into these four buffers.
Pool Configuration Buffer
The following information describing a storage pool is returned to the buffer you identify

name
2:19
The name of the storage pool, padded with binary NULLs,
including the system name.

STARTDOWN
flag
50:51
Two bytes treated as a single binary field. Set to 0 if the
execution state of the storage pool process is set to UP when
the process is started. Set to 1 if the execution state is set to
DOWN at process startup.
Disk event
threshold
52:53
Two bytes treated as a single binary field. The threshold at
which the disk processes associated with magnetic physical
volumes in the storage pool should emit an EMS disk full event.
Set to -1 if event generation based on disk utilization is disabled.
Set to 1 through 100 to indicate the percentage of disk space
remaining at which disk full events should be generated.
