Some topic / function areas that come to mind are: - system and job schedule updates (workstation and batch) - prod schedule overrides, cancellations, suspensions - job / event triggers - job / event delays - all workstation and batch event activity with LOGIN/USERID info - Jobstream JCL changes made within job scheduler facilities - system/job/event database updates Each of these items, ideally, would be prefixed with a message number, for identification and explanation (okay, might be wishful thinking), along with date and time (in each record -- not when the date first changes which is PITA to track, frankly).
