Just to remember: z/OS MVS's system logger provides support for SUBSYS JCL keyword to read either logrec or SMF directly from the logstream: >From the z/OS MVS Tools and Service Aids manual: SUBSYS=(LOGR[,exit_routine_name][,'SUBSYS-options1'][,'SUBSYS-options2']) Specifies that processing of this DD is to be handled by the LOGR subsystem. The exit_routine_name is the second positional parameter and specifies the name of the exit routine to receive control from the LOGR subsystem. o Specify or use the default value to IXGSEXIT to use the log stream subsystem exit routine. o Specify IFBSEXIT to access records from the logrec log stream. See SUBSYS-options2 for logrec-specific paramters. o Specify IFASEXIT to access records from SMF log streams. See SUBSYS-options2 for SMF-specific parameters. I guess (I'm not a vendor) that vendors might get access to documentation related to SUBSYS= SSI function under some nondisclosure agreement or what ever. Curious to understand where the problems with SUBSYS= lie. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
