    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: RMF support for Cryptographic           *
    *                      Express8S Hardware Security Module on   *

    ****************************************************************
    With this APAR, RMF's Monitor I and Monitor III Crypto
    data collection (>V2R3 only) is extended to recognize
    performance measurements from Cryptographic Express8S
    Hardware Security Module (HSM), configured as Crypto
    Express8S Coprocessor (CEX8C), Crypto Express8S
    Accelerator (CEX8A) or Crypto Express8S PKCS11
    Coprocessor (CEX8P) type on IBM z16.
    Cryptographic Express8S HSM measurements are stored in the
    existing Cryptographic Data Section of SMF record 70 subtype 2
    and Monitor III ERBCRYG3 - Cryptographic Hardware Data Table
    (>V2R3 only).
