This just occurred to me. I wonder if I'm suffering from lack of oxygen to the brain. But, as best as I can tell, SDSF is capable of accessing the SPOOL files for a non-active JES2 system. At least as I recall from the past, I did this. So I got to wondering. Suppose I have a z/Linux system running in the same complex. Perhaps under z/VM. It might be nice (FSVO nice), if I could logon to z/Linux and do SDSF ad least to the extent of being able to read SPOOL files. Of course, being a bit paranoid, I would only allow a READONLY access to the DASD containing the SPOOL data. And there is always the specter of security. There may be SPOOL files which I should not be able to even READ (like payroll or HIPAA reports or ...). So this may be a stupid idea. But the though is intriguing to me.
