Recording message traffic
JES3 and MVS™ record all message traffic in the system
log. Each DLOG entry includes a time stamp, a date stamp, and the
text of the message. Each entry in the log can also include:
- The JES3 destination class to which the message was routed.
- The console from which a command was entered
- The console to which a message was routed.
- The name of the job associated with the message.
- Whether the system suppressed the message from console display.
- The system ID for messages issued by another processor.
- Flags indicating unusual conditions or marking lines of special interest.
