Performing System Management Tasks

Chapter 4  Defining Events to Be Recorded 

One of your tasks as system manager is to use the SYSGEN LOG configurator
to establish which system and user events are recorded in log files.

System logging records certain system resource usage information by
accounts, groups, and users on a job or session basis.  For example you
might decide to log failed attempts to enter passwords for the purpose of
monitoring system security.

User logging records additions and modifications to databases and other
files used in application programs by users and subsystems.  You
determine the maximum number of logging processes and the maximum number
of users per logging process.

In this chapter, you can find the following tasks:

   *   entering the LOG configurator

   *   using online help

   *   showing current information about logging

   *   controlling system logging

   *   controlling user logging

   *   printing a log file
