If it does, then (educated) users can turn it on when needed and then off again. I had the same issue with operlog years ago and I wanted the LOG command to always default to syslog. By the time we implemented OPERLOG, it was already too late since the default was "operlog if active" and already saved in everyone's profile. Besides the performance issues when sdsf operlog support came around, we also protected the logstream which would cause an error like "no records found" when people issued the log command and were not authorized for the logstream. So to this day I have the code in the ISFUSER exit but could probably get rid of the exit if all the profiles were updated via the exit (the SDSF parms were also updated years ago to make SYSLOG the default for new profiles). I probably tested this all way back then, but I can't remember the results (as far as the profile being updated to what I forced in the exit).
