Graham, Syslog is a log and history of what has been going on in your system. Jobs that have run, messages written to syslog, etc... Some shops archive it to dasd as a GDG to keep it around in-case they need to go back and research an issue. So the choices are 1) Leave it on spool 2) Write i

Your edit macro ALTER performs two different functions: it changes all occurrences of one string to another and submits a job. Either of these could fail. Which would you like the return code to reflect? You could initialize a local variable to 0 near the top of your macro. After issuing the CHA

The edit session ends with CANCEL, which means no changes were saved, which means ISPF sets the return code of the macro to 4. If you want to end with a different return code, you can hard code it like this: EXIT CODE(0) Or set it using this as an example: ISREDIT CHANGE 'XXX' '&V0' ALL
