Barbara,
        It may very well be that SYSLOG has always stopped at either 
$PJES2 or the Z EOD command being 
issued.  I don't remember it that way nor does anyone else in the shop. So 
for us, it's something 
new and exciting....  We've updated OPERLOG to duplex so that we don't 
lose shutdown logs when a coupling
facility may be shutdown or abnormally terminates. 

        IBM has work to do for SMF or any CF based logstream...  Logger 
should always harden the SMF 
data at shutdown to the archive datasets, currently it does not do so 
reliably.
