I fully concur with Barbara. Thers is nothing more frustrating than having to explain what happend when you don't have means to find out what happened. SYSLOG/OPERLOG is one of the great things MVS offers to help with debugging and problem analyzing. If you're going to change that behaviour, make it so that someone needs to activate it with full awareness of what is going to change and leave the default as it is. -- Peter Hunkeler Credit Suisse ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
