Kees,

Its working on my 1.13 system.  Not sure if you just had a typo with 
/dev/syslog.  Its /dev/console or /dev/operlog  for operlog you have to add 1 
byte to the front of the message though:

The following are system console files: 

/dev/console (major 9, minor 0). Data written to the /dev/console file is sent 
to the console and is displayed in message BPXF024I by means of a 
write-to-operator function. This message also contains the user ID of the 
process that wrote to the console. It is automatically created the first time 
the system is IPLed and is created with minor number 0. 
/dev/operlog (major 9, minor 1). This device file is intended for the syslog 
daemon. Data written to the /dev/operlog file is sent directly to the sysplex 
message log, OPERLOG, which must be active, and is displayed in message 
BPXF060I. For each write operation to /dev/operlog, the first character is 
removed from the message and used as a message indicator code with the 
following values: 
'00'x 
The message originated on a remote system. 
'80'x 
The message originated on the local system. 
Improperly-formatted messages written to /dev/operlog will result in an error 
return code with EINVAL as the errno. 
Using /dev/operlog is a quick way of logging messages.

Cp test /dev/operlog 

Results in

Cp test /dev/console

Results in

14310 07:17:28.72 STC28666 00000000  BPXF024I (userid) this is a test        

I actually think you get more information from /dev/console as you get the 
userid writing the message too, with /dev/operlog you do not.

Dave,

We can get /dev/operlog working, is the new in 2.1? 
/dev/syslog seems to be accepted, but does not go to syslog. Is this a valid 
device?

Kees.

Not exactly sure, but check out the manual for syslog.conf   there are specific 
special files called /dev/operlog and /dev/console

Subject: Exposing USS Messages to z/OS SYSLOG

I have requirement of exposing Mainframe USS messages appearing in WAS Started 
tasks on z/OS (For eg. BBOO0221W ) to Mainframe SYSLOG.

Is there any way to achieve this ?
