Have you looked at SAMPLIB(IEAMDBLG)? I have tweaks that allow it to create long (LRECL=255) SYSLOG format records that effectively eliminate split lines.

Greetings all,

I have spent some time examining the structure of SYSLOG/OPERLOG in order to produce a message scanner that can produce whole message output (i.e. assembling multiple lines while selecting a single message id).

I have a couple of questions that someone may be able to help me with, relating to single line WTO messages.


1. If a line in SYSLOG has the letter 'N' in the first position in SYSLOG/OPERLOG then it is for a single-line WTO. However, it can have a continuation line in SYSLOG/OPERLOG if the WTO overflows a single line. This secondary line has an 'S' in the first position. Will the 'S' line always follow immediately after the 'N' line? (i.e. could another line come between them?
  2.  Can there be more than one 'S' line for a 'N' line?
  3.  If so, will they always be kept together?

Thanks in advance for any help.
Lennie
