I may well be wrong with my interpretation of the above statement and a similar 
one in you initial post. Anyway, here I go...


I seem to understand that you got the impression that it is all those SLIPs 
that are responsible for the logrec entries, that is, the logrec records are 
written because of a SLIP. This is not the case. A problem arises in the 
software, and this may lead to an ABEND (SVC 13) being issued either by the 
software explicitly, or by some service routine that was called. Logrec records 
are a consequence of this.


SLIPs are set to perform an action when events, such as ABENDs, and a lot more, 
occur. The logrec records are written independently.
