You should take great pride in this program but you need to be honest about what it can achieve. Your program uses syslog which cannot solve "all" multi-line message issues. If we can't do it in automation products with all information available, then you can't completely solve it with minimal information. There's a reason why some automation products provide the ability to process secondary messages as single messages, single message related to the primary message or as a complete MLWTO. I suspect that for most people, your solution will meet the needs for most people but they should always keep in mind that if something doesn't feel right, then they need to dig deeper. As an alternative, OPERLOG gives you much of the information seen by automation products but remember there will still be a few situations not easily solvable and operlog overhead may outweigh its benefits. In addition, OPERLOG requires the use of a program interface. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
