SPECIFICATIONS

Type80 SYSLOG for z/OS is an assembler written application that resides within an LPAR on the mainframe. Each LPAR requires an instance of SYSLOG to be active to achieve complete enterprise monitoring. SYSLOG is a started task (STC) process that can be started at IPL time. The SYSLOG STC collects console messages, messages from all batch jobs, CICS, DB2, and all other WTO messages from within the LPAR.
