And doing an SE line command in SDSF for *master* is a nice touch to see the syslog of that system, all the edit commands can easily be used to search for things. I tend to use this right after an IPL, when I need to see if anything has failed to start or got an error and a few other catchphrases ('only failed' as an edit command, for instance). Automation netview is another example of an STC started sub=mstr that gets itself a jobid later to place the AOFLOG. When I got 'JCT NOT AVAILABLE' I was told to issue the SDSF command 'input on' in the command line. I have never understood why, and besides, in many cases it didn't help, anyway.
