Searching syslogd log messages

Perform the following steps to search syslogd log messages:

1. Enter your search options and search arguments as shown in the following example:

   *------------------------- z/OS CS Syslogd Browser ---------------------------*
   OPTION ===>                                                                    
                                                                                  
   Enter your search options.                                                     
                                                                                  
     Case sensitive  ==> NO         (Yes/No) Are string arguments case sensitive? 
     Maximum hits    ==> 5          (1-99999) Max number of hits to display       
     Result DSN name ==> 'USER1.SYSLOGD.LIST'                                     
     Result DSN UNIT ==> SYSALLDA   Unit name for allocating new result DSN       
     Result DSN disp ==> 1          1:Keep, 2:Delete, 3:Display print menu        
                                                                                  
   Enter your search arguments.  All arguments will be logically ANDed.           
                                                                                  
     From date  . . .==> 2008/10/02 (yyyy/mm/dd) Search from date                 
     - and time . . .==> 10:50:00   (hh:mm:ss) - and time (24-hour clock)         
     To date  . . . .==> 2008/10/03 (yyyy/mm/dd) Search to date                   
     - and time . . .==> 02:00:00   (hh:mm:ss) - and time (24-hour clock)         
     User ID  . . . .==>            z/OS user ID of logging process               
     Job name . . . .==>            z/OS jobname of logging process               
     Rem. host name .==>                                                          
     Rem. IP address ==>                                                          
     Message tag  . .==> Pagent          Enter ? for list                         
     Process ID . . .==>            z/OS UNIX process ID                          
     String 1 . . . .==> PAPI                                                     
     String 2 . . . .==>                                                          
     String 3 . . . .==>                                                          
     String 4 . . . .==>                                                          
                                                                                  
   Message tags are typically component names.  PID availability depends on       
   options set by the logging application.  UserID and Jobnames are available     
   for local messages if syslogd is started with the -u option.                   
                                                                                  
   UserID, jobname, message tag, and remote host name will always be              
   case insensitive.                                                              
                                                                                  
   Press ENTER to start search or the END PF key to return with no search  

   Tip: The case sensitive option applies to search strings 1 - 4 only. The User ID, Job name, Message tag, and Rem. host name fields are not case sensitive.

2. Optional: For the message tag, you can enter a message tag value to search for, or enter a question mark (?) and press the ENTER key. In that case, a selection list is displayed in which you select the message tag that is to be part of the search arguments.

   Rule: A message must match all the specified search arguments to be considered a hit.

Result: If there are many messages to search, the search might take a few seconds. A popup panel like the following example is displayed while the search is being performed:
