I'm pretty sure there was a requirement to have unique SMF ID (sysid)
for every system contributing SMF records to SCRT.

However now I cannot find it in the documentation.

Is it still valid requirement or it was relieved?

Duplicate SMFID is supported now using SIDMAP to map each
model-serial/SMFID pair to a unique SID. I think within a single CEC the
SMFID must be unique to feed the same SCRT. Presumably this was done years
ago for country multiplex pricing capability.

To answer myself and Attila:
I don't fully understand the requirement for unique sysid, however I
found it in clear text in SCRT v18.1 manual. And I remember big
discussion with IBM about it. They even provided a tool to change sysid
before the records are read by SCRT reporting program.
However it seems the requirement was relieved in 2019.

Unique sysids are no longer required. SCRT has supported duplicate
z/OS sysids on different LPARs since version 24.10 (circa 2016).
