Dear Massimo and Kolusu,

Thank you for your help. I got the results I wanted. The results are as follows.
   MSGID                 NUMREC 
  $HASP000                   20 
  $HASP001                   10
  ..............
---->DISTINCT COUNT:     530

 I also appreciate Kevin McKenzie's reply.

 The reason why I counted how many times each unique msgid appeared in a day is 
to compare today's operlog with yesterday's operlog and

 see which msgids are new and which ones increased more than yesterday, such as 
by 30%.

 I got a list of msgids that need special attention. I used this list to 
extract the specific content of today's OPERLOG to find out the possible risks 
of the system in time.

I have two questions:

1.The first question is whether there is a better way or tool to analyze 
operlog.

2. The second question is whether sort can delete the numbers marked by line 
breaks in the multi-line records of MSGID to facilitate deduplication of 
multiple lines. See the information below:

•M....             00000090 HZS0002E CHECK 423

•E...       423  00000090 IXCH0602E The sysplex couple data set has insufficient

The second line 423 indicates a line break of the first line 423.. I want to 
delete 423 of the first line. REXX processing is very easy but too slow because 
my operlog for one day is very large. Can sort or other tools handle it?  

Any suggestions is greatly appreciated 

Jason Cai
