> Has anyone ever tried to log the 3270 Linux consoles to a central server? Built into VM. Spool the consoles of the Linux guests to a machine running PROP (preferably NOT OPERATOR, to keep the operator console from flooding and to allow the userid to use SFS for logs (the designated userid needs to start AFTER the SFS servers)) and everything goes into a file that can be edited or BROWSEd with the full power of XEDIT or BROWSE. PROP does the right thing with the log files on a daily basis. I've had good luck with using PerfKit for this task too. The scrolling operator log mode in PerfKit also lets you automagically filter unimportant things out easily and go back and forward. We ran Perfkit in console mode as the operator console for quite some time. If you're in LPAR mode, then, well..you should fix that. Your options are to use syslog to log to a remote server as well as to the console, or monitor the console in some other way via a hardware solution. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
