Settings required for collecting event logs

Specify the settings required for collecting event logs. The specification method varies depending on
whether you want to output event logs to the log stream by using the system logger service or to the
Smart Manager for Mainframe log dataset without using the system logger service.

Procedure

To output event logs to the log stream by using the system logger service, perform all the sysplex setup
procedures for using the DASD-only log stream for the system logger service described in the MVS
Setting Up a Sysplex.

To output event logs to the Smart Manager for Mainframe log dataset without using the system logger
service, create a log dataset before executing a CLI command.

For details about event logs, see the description about collecting event logs.
