You know, I would think it would be possible -- nearly trivial -- to write a generic Rexx script that would issue any arbitrary console command, collect the results, and do "something" with those results -- where "something" was any of the things Rexx can do, such as writing it to a file. Would not be hard at all.
The script could append to a dataset named userid.CMDLOG (or whatever) and you would have an ongoing log of every console command that each userid ever entered, and the responses. (No, not forensic-level. It assumes a trusted user. It would answer the question "what the heck was that command I issued, when did I do it, and what was the response?" not the question "we suspect Bob is a bad guy -- what did he do to our system and can we prove it?" Still would be useful.) Or could append to SYS1.stcname.CMDLOG and you would have a log of every command ever issued to a particular STC name. (Again, not forensic.) Trivial to parse out the first operand of an F or P command.
