Issue/Introduction

In IDMS utility LOGD (Online Log Display) using a FIND command to find mixed case text in log messages does not find the requested string.

For example, issuing the command f 'Shutdown' or find 'Shutdown' in the following screen returns END OF DATA REACHED and does not find the string

Resolution

To find mixed case literals in IDMS messages within LOGD, first issue DCUF SET UPLOW and it will find mixed case literals, but there is one idiosyncrasy that must be followed.

After issuing DCUF SET UPLOW, and then entering LOGD and issuing the following command: 

   f  'Shutdown'  or find 'Shutdown'

The following error appears: LOGD080E-INVALID COMMAND 

If however, the F or FIND is entered in upper case, it will be successful and the cursor will be positioned on the found literal.

Example: FIND 'Shutdown' or F 'Shutdown'
