Variable data snipped from log records


When Log Analyzer provides details about log records (in batch reports and the ISPF interface), whenever possible it reports relevant data from within the log record.

Log Analyzer 'snips' relevant data by mapping relevant fields in the log record and saving the data from the fields as the record is read. Relevant data depends on the type of the log record.

For example, relevant data for type 03 records includes the IMSID of the originating IMS system, the IMSID of the destination IMS system, and so on. Because relevant data is not constant across all types of log records, it is displayed in a Variable data field on reports and ISPF panels. Depending on the available space in the report or on the panel, the data has a short or long label to identify the field.

For some types of log records, no data was considered to be important to snip. In this case, reports and ISPF panels display the following string: (no formatted data)
