Moving log data sets

DBRC records information about IMS logs in the RECON data set. This information includes the log data set name (DSN), its starting and ending times, and the volume serial (VOLSER).

The best way to avoid lost logs is to use cataloged log data sets and the DBRC CATDS option.

For non-cataloged log data sets, inform DBRC about changes by using the CHANGE.PRILOG or CHANGE.SECLOG command.
