There are two ways that you can read data from log streams:
- Write a new application to read data that supports the log stream
data format using the system logger services, particularly IXGBRWSE.
See IXGBRWSE: Browsing/reading a log stream.
- Use the LOGR subsystem to access log stream data in data set format
for existing applications that need to read log data but do not support
the log stream format.
This information describes how to use the LOGR subsystem to
access log stream data in data set format. For example, you might
have existing applications that read logrec data in data set format.
The LOGR subsystem interface allows you to use your existing applications
to read log stream output without having to re-write them.
