This is from the z/OS 2.4 "z/OS MVS Planning: Operations" manual.  I do find it 
interesting that similar information is found in different manuals.


Each SYSLOG record is prefaced by a two-character record type field.

Valid first characters are:
N - single-line message
W - single-line message with reply
      WTOR messages are not processed by Message Flood Automation.
M - first line of a multi-line message
      Message Flood Automation can only react to the first line of a multiline 
message, not to any of the label, data or end lines
L - multi-line message label line
D - multi-line message data line
E - multi-line message data/end line
S - continuation of previous line
O - LOG command input
X - non-hardcopy or LOG command source

Valid second characters are:
C - command issued by operator
R - command response message
I - internally issued command
U - command from unknown console ID (z/OSĀ® R8 and above)
