On a z/OS 2.5 system using z System Automation V4.3, I am trying to set a daily
event that runs on each LPAR of the SYSPLEX.
The event needs to issue a 'W L' then locate the SYSLOG output for that
specific LPAR, start an XWTR with job selection for class and JOBID...
For example,

We are building a parallel sysplex.
LPAR1 is still in a monoplex with GRS=NONE. It will be shutdown. Then we
want to bring up LPAR2 with GRS=STAR and join the sysplex.
A couple of questions cropped up.

This is a vendor package. Upon asking they said they only support RLS for

The SDSF "JS" action does not get sent to remote systems in the sysplex. It
reads data from a special JES2 dataset for the job locally.
A possible reason for no data being shown is that the job on the remote system
is not in the same MAS.

Keith, I'm assuming you are talking about looking at job on a different lpar in
the same sysplex, also part of the same JES MAS.
This is a display of a job running on a different lpars then the one I was
logged on to. This is a z/OS 2.4 environment.
SDSF JOB STEP DISPLAY - JOB DTSTM01D
I found that the SDSF ‘JS’ (job steps) command issued from the SDSF panels or
via the REXX API produces no output if the target job is running on a
different system in the sysplex. This is with z/os 2.5. On a 2.3 system the
same happens except that the heading says ‘no job steps found
