Biased Product Plug by the Product Architect Syncsort's Ironstream product is designed to supply realtime data from z/OS systems to a Splunk repository.
Data can include SYSLOG, SMF records, RMF data, SYSPRINT from the JES spool, system performance data, Log4j files, Flat files and data provided via user API's. We continue to add sources as users identify new requirements. Our growing number of customers use this data for security, operational, monitoring and many other functions using Splunk application dash boards. Splunk has an application store that has a number of free Splunk applications that can be used to start getting value from the data on day one. We also offer a free limited use version of Ironstream that will allow you do download any amount of SYSLOG data. You can go to and get more information at http://www.syncsort.com/en/Products/Mainframe/Ironstream. From that page you can see a video that shows some of what can be done using Ironstream and Splunk. Also, at that site you can download the free version and play with it yourself.

We forward our OPERLOG to Splunk, although we don’t use Syncsort’s forwarder. (I wrote my own; it wasn’t that hard.) Our main motivation was to show that the mainframe group are “team players” since everyone else around here was investing in Splunk, but it is actually quite useful. We’ve set up a few regular reports of classes of ABENDs or other errors we like to keep track of, and it allows us to go back and do searches for messages when an issue arises that we hadn’t foreseen. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ________________________________ ATTENTION: ----- The information contained in this message (including any files transmitted with this message) may contain proprietary, trade secret or other confidential and/or legally privileged information.
