You might want to consider that the OpenSSH SMF records are part of the Type
119 record and use subtype 94, 95, 96, 97, and 98
Subtype 96 is the "Server" transfer complete record and 97 is the "Client"
equivalent. These records would give you who, what and where someone accessed a

I am still running z/OS 1.13 and the MVS "DISPLAY SYMBOLS" will only display
"Static" system symbols, it does not show what dynamic symbols are available
Same with TASID & SHOWZOS, they only show the "Static" symbols. FYI: IPLINFO
from Mark Zelden, only shows Static.
Don't know MXI.

For my $0.02, yes I too would like to see the file names match the manual
title, BUT there is a little flaw in doing this. Sometimes within a manual
there will be a link referencing another manual and that link should you click
on it, will be using the file name that IBM assigns. I do not run
I would take a look at CBTTAPE.org FILE 1 (the index to what is available) to

You could include one of the following commands in the FTP command stream on

Not sure, just love convoluted "Reason Codes," but is there an outstanding
"Write to Operator" awaiting a reply? The "00B6" in RSN implies this, but I am

A slightly different answer might be found at CBTTAPE.ORG, file 248. It does
not lock the screen, but disconnects and then cancels if not reconnected within
a follow-on time period. File 325 from Wells Fargo does something similar.

My lousy $0.02 on this:
1. 71? Column 71 is the old "Continuation" column in JCL.
