NOTICE!! This is NOT really a solution to the OP's problem. But I got
to wondering. So I did something "weird and wonderful" (OK, maybe not
the latter).
In z/OS UNIX, the following could be done, if Dovetail Technologies'
Data Set Pipes is installed
lsjes -s a -o \* -t -p SYSLOG |\
while read stcnum junk1;do
lsjes -d -t ${stcnum} |\
tail -1 |\
{ read dsid junk2;
stcdata=${stcnum}.${dsid};
fromdsn -jes.${file} >jes.${stcdata}.new;
if [ -e jes.${stcdata}.old ]; then
diff jes.${stcdata}.old jes.${stcdata}.new |\
awk '$1 == ">"' >>jes.${stcdata}
mv jes.${stcdata}.new ${stcdata}.old
else
mv mv jes.${stcdata}.new jes.${stcdata}.old
sed -E 's/^/> /' jes.${stcdata}.old >>jes.${stcdata}
}
done
Put the above in a script. Run it via crontab once every minute. It
uses lsjes to find the running SYSLOG job(s). There can be multiple in
a JESPlex. For each active SYSLOG, do an "lsjes" to find the DSID of
the SPOOL data set. Use that information to copy the data into a UNIX
file, with a .new suffix. If a .old version exists, then do a diff of
the .new and old, putting the .new lines into a UNIX file without the
suffix (using awk), and rename the .new to .old. If a .old file does
not exist, then copy the rename the .new to .old, then use sed to copy
it into a non-suffixed name. The "sed" is used to insert a leading >
sign so that it looks the same as the output from the diff.
Yes, I know this is not really a good solution. But I thought it a bit
"interesting" at least.
