Determining hardcopy medium settings

Use the following step to determine how your installation's hardcopy medium is set up:

• Enter the DISPLAY CONSOLES,HARDCOPY command. The output displays the following information:
  • The hardcopy medium as SYSLOG, OPERLOG, or both
  • The criteria defined by your installation for selecting messages for the hardcopy message set
  • The number of messages waiting to be placed on the hardcopy medium

If you have already defined the log stream as SYSPLEX.OPERLOG in either the data administrative utility or in the IXGINVNT macro, use the V OPERLOG,HARDCPY to assign OPERLOG as the hardcopy medium. You can assign both OPERLOG and SYSLOG by issuing the command separately.

To define a log stream using the system logger services, see Setting up OPERLOG.
