Storing messages in separate user logs z/OS TSO/E Customization SA32-0976-00 |
|
Using user logs, each user has an individual user log data set. The user log data set can be either a sequential data set or a member of a partitioned data set. To implement user logs, use the LOGNAME operand of the SEND PARMLIB parameter in IKJTSOxx. For LOGNAME, specify the qualifier(s) for the user log data set name. You can also specify a member name in parentheses. The other qualifier of each user log data set is the user's user ID. Note: User log data set names should not conflict with system
data set names.
The naming convention used for the user log data set depends on
the MSGPROTECT operand setting:
A user log requires a minimum of one track for each user. You can save space by defining user logs as members of a partitioned data set. However, TSO/E does not compress a PDS. If SEND needs to store a message, SEND rewrites the member in the PDS. If your users receive a considerable amount of mail, you may eventually run out of allocated space in the PDS. In this case, you may want to use sequential data sets for some of your user's user logs. LISTBC allocates user logs using the following data set attributes:
Note: The above space attributes can be overridden using
the USERLOGSIZE operand under the SEND statement in PARMLIB member
IKJTSOxx. For more information, see .
For members of a PDS, LISTBC uses a value of 20 for the number of directory blocks. You can use the LISTBC pre-allocate exit to allocate your own user logs with attributes that are more suitable for your different users. For more information about the exits, see Writing exits for the SEND, OPERATOR SEND, and LISTBC commands. For information about implementing user logs, see Converting from using the broadcast data set to user logs. You can also use individual user logs for some of your users and continue to use the broadcast data set as the message repository for other users. For more information, see Storing messages in user logs and the broadcast data set. |
