I think that SMF itself is not sufficient for security alerts. Only part of

Hi,
I upgraded from PCOM v13.0.1 to v 13.0.7.
When I press ENTER, there is no indication in the OIA.
How do I enable this?
Thanks

You’re using the same stem variable for input and output. Use a specific
stdout. stem and see if that fixes it. Kolusu’s snippet works for me.

Charles,
Your example data
/* REXX */
stdin.0=3
stdin.1="0001 Main Check"
stdin.2="0002 OMVS (FTP Session)"
stdin.3="0003 C Validation"
cmd="sort -k 2"

Charles,
Try a space after k.
Something like this
/* REXX */
stdin.0=5
stdin.1="KIJJ 3"
stdin.2="KQWR 1"
stdin.3="ADGF 2"
stdin.4="OEPE 6"
stdin.5="VNVV 5"
cmd="sort -k 2"
call bpxwunix cmd,stdin.,stdout.,stderr.
say "stdout:"

I am trying to sort a Rexx "array" starting with the second "word" of the
variables. My "array" is in Index.n and contains records of the form where is 0001, 0002, 0003, etc. and string is 2 to 5

Good afternoon,

I agree, except that I think the goal is not to squirrel metrics into logs, but
to get metrics and/or logs (actual SYSLOG) to tooling used outside of mainframe.
