Re: IP Address Capture

[MacWheel99@xxxxxxx]

First off from command line do DSPLOG & review amount of data there to see if 
it covers your needs.

Then try DSPLOG F4 to get past the defaults.  You may need to check GO 
CLEANUP to see how long you are storing this information.

It may be that what you need is a daily print out of this information to the 
managers involved & they would be happy with that.  But you probably need 
something that excludes from the LOG of jobs starting & stopping on the 
system, the normal day to day JOBQ & twinax emulation sessions.

As I recall ... this data can go to screen view or *PRINT but not to an 
outfile, but a recent discussion on this list told me about CPYSPLF where we 
can take from a spool file to a data base file & manipulate from there.
