Building EXTRACT, INDEXFILE, and WORKFILE control statements
To build keywords and values on control statements that are used to allocate Log Analyzer external files, use the following panels:
- The EXTRACT Control Statement panel (EXTRACT CONTROL STATEMENT PANEL) builds control statements to allocate an extract file. Log Analyzer writes all log records that are associated with LUOWs of interest to this file.
- The INDEXFILE Control Statement panel (which is similar to (EXTRACT CONTROL STATEMENT PANEL) to builds control statements to allocate an index file. The Log Analyzer ISPF interface uses this file during interactive analysis of LUOWs.
- The WORKFILE Control Statement panel (which is similar to (EXTRACT CONTROL STATEMENT PANEL) builds control statements to allocate a work file. Log Analyzer uses this file to sort log records that it reads from an input extract file.
For more information, see Specifying-EXTRACT-INDEXFILE-and-WORKFILE-control-statements
To access and work with fileType Control Statement panels
- Access the Build JCL panel.For instructions, see Accessing-JCL-functions.
In the Control Statements field to the left of the EXTRACT, INDEXFILE, or WORKFILE label, enter S.One of the following panels is displayed, depending on which label you selected:
- EXTRACT Control Statement panel (see (EXTRACT CONTROL STATEMENT PANEL))
- INDEXFILE Control Statement panel
- WORKFILE Control Statement panel
These panels are similar to each other but contain different fields and generate different control statements (based on your entries).
