You'll see this message: IEF188I PROBLEM PROGRAM ATTRIBUTES ASSIGNED My syslog collection process runs the external writer as a multi-step STC. The first step is the external writer, then the next step splits the syslogs from each LPAR in the MAS into their own files [1] on disk, the next step copies those to tape (longer retention), the next step runs the OPERLOG offload program - IEAMDBLG and the final step copies the operlog from disk to tape. [1] I had to write a REXX program to separate the syslogs in the MAS into separate files after a logical consolidation left me no available output classes to use keep each system in the MAS unique. So all systems write the syslog to class L, and I separate them later.
