I believe shared ISPF profile is the case. This behavior started in z/OS 1.8 with the advent of the SDSF address space.
Thanks for the tip about using SYSID with no operands. db -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Zelden Sent: Friday, February 22, 2008 8:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: SDSF Question - How do you change the system log you are looking at?

If you use SYSID without any operands, it defaults to the current sysid. Even if you share your ISPF profile this will allow you to view the syslog of the system you are logged onto without having to issue the SYSID command ever. That is the way it's always worked... unless something changed in 1.9 that I am not aware of. What has changed is the SYSID ? display in recent releases. It used to just show the value of the setting. Now it will display all the systems defined in the MASDEF (whether they exist or not) with the system you are logged onto being enclosed in parenthesis. In order to tell the current setting, you have to look at the title line: SDSF SYSLOG 397.101 IPO1 IPO2 11/15/2000 4W | | | | | Job | | | Outstandin number| | | WTORs | | Date of Data set | SYSLOG number | data set | JES2 system ID of the log currently shown (IPO1), and JES2 system ID of the system the user is logged on to (IPO2) Mark -- Mark Zelden Sr. Software and Systems Architect - z/OS Team Lead Zurich North America / Farmers Insurance Group - ZFUS G-ITO mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] z/OS Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ Mark's MVS Utilities: http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsutil.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
