Setting access privileges for system logger resources
If the System Authorization Facility (SAF) can be used, grant access privileges to users who execute
Smart Manager for Mainframe commands because the system performs SAF checks for each request.
The following access privileges must be granted.
•
CLASS:
FACILITY
RESOURCE:
MVSADMIN.LOGR
Permission: ALTER permission or READ permission
•
CLASS:
LOGSTRM
RESOURCE: Log stream name
Permission: ALTER permission
Starting the system logger service
This subsection describes how to start the system logger service.
To start the system logger service, activate the subsystem (system logger address space). If the subsystem
is not active, an error will occur in the connection request macro (
IXGCONN
).
•
Use either of the following methods to activate the subsystem.
• Add
SUBSYS SUBNAME(LOGR) INITRTN(IXGSSINT)
to the
IEFSSNxx
parmlib member.
To activate the subsystem with this method, you must perform an IPL again.
• Use the
SETSSI ADD,SUBNAME=LOGR,INITRTN=IXGSSINT
command to dynamically
add the subsystem.
TIP:
To stop the system logger service, execute the
FORCE IXGLOGR,ARM
command. To restart the system
logger service that was stopped by the
FORCE IXGLOGR,ARM
command, use the
S IXGLOGRS
command.
Parameters specified when a log stream is defined
This subsection describes the parameters that are specified when the IXCMIAPU utility is used to define
a log stream.
For details about parameters, see the manual MVS Setting Up a Sysplex.
NAME(log_stream_name)
The log stream name is
CCENTRAL.LOG.system-name
. For a
system-name
, specify the system
name of the system symbol (
&SYSNAME
). If a system name starts with a number, Smart Manager
for Mainframe extracts the last five characters of the system name and adds prefixed
YKS
to them
to form the log stream name. If a system name starts with a number, the last five characters used
for the log stream name must be unique within the sysplex.
The following shows examples of how a system name starting with a number is converted to the
system name in a log stream name.
• For the system name
1SYS
starting with a number and consisting of less than five characters:
YKS
is added to the system name to create
YKS1SYS
.
