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) Paul Feller GTS Mainframe Technical Support -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Colin Paice Sent: Saturday, August 6, 2022 9:05 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: SDSF record and request types [EXTERNAL] See MVS System messages ABA.. eg SA38-0668-04 https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.ibm.com_docs_en_zos_2.3.0-3Ftopic-3Dformat-2Dmessage-2Dbody&d=DwIBaQ&c=9g4MJkl2VjLjS6R4ei18BA&r=eUhu3PeeWy6RTndlJVKembFjFsvwCa8eeU_gm45NyOc&m=NfQ8LoRxiy8fkxXrX7-7a5SFmv_-By6n1u6sWfznZjJfI1g8BgAFX4Rl12cHh9fZ&s=VtNyovKAdHn7AQ4_VdL5m08OoF2dh2wlYjrr0uDm6eQ&e= and https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.ibm.com_docs_en_zos_2.3.0-3Ftopic-3Dformat-2Dmessages-2Dsent-2Dhardcopy-2Dlog-2Din-2Djes2-2Dsystem&d=DwIBaQ&c=9g4MJkl2VjLjS6R4ei18BA&r=eUhu3PeeWy6RTndlJVKembFjFsvwCa8eeU_gm45NyOc&m=NfQ8LoRxiy8fkxXrX7-7a5SFmv_-By6n1u6sWfznZjJfI1g8BgAFX4Rl12cHh9fZ&s=RZb-SuX9aMMbmK3iHMR8EXDheXyOV8_9bHmsxOTNZLE&e= On Sat, 6 Aug 2022 at 14:24, Pierre Fichaud <pr...@videotron.ca<mailto:pr...@videotron.ca>> wrote: > In SDSF, I type in the LOG command. > > I get lines like : > > X 0000000 S0W1 22060 18:01:25.24 SYSLOG 00000000 IEE042I SYSTEM > LOG DATA SET INITIALIZED > NC0000000 S0W1 22060 18:00:18.73 INTERNAL 00000290 CONTROL M,UEXIT=Y > IEAVN701 - INTERNALLY ISSUED K M > NR0000000 S0W1 22060 18:00:18.78 INTERNAL 00000090 IEA590I WTO USER > EXIT IEAVMXIT NOT FOUND > N 0000000 S0W1 22060 17:59:03.28 00000290 IEA371I > SYS1.IPLPARM ON DEVICE 0CE3 SELECTED FOR IPL PARAMETERS > N 0000000 S0W1 22060 17:59:03.28 00000290 IEA246I LOAD ID > W1 SELECTED > > The first 2 characters according to the SDSF documentation and the > HELP panels are the record type and request type. > The HELP panel gives the following for record type : > N - Single-line message > W - Single-line message with a reply > M - First line of a multi-line message O - Log command input X - Entry > from a source other than hardcopy or log command > > Another HELP panel gives the following for the request types: > S - Continuation of previous line > L - Label line of a multi-line message D - First line of a multi-line > message > > > I am seeing more than the documentation I pasted above. > I see lines with E or ER.
