CA-7 file structure for the LOG records

Environment

Release : 11.3

Component : CA-7

Resolution

Some information about CA-7 Logs,

If CA-7 is up, then one of the log files will be open and being written to, the other log would be closed.  May not be easy to determine current active log file; the CA-7 command of /DISPLAY,DB=LOG will show this.   

The format of the log records (VB) can be different between releases of CA-7.

For example, the records containing the JQREC data are different with the schd id value being 2 bytes with Release 12.0 (and some other things).    

The SASS7LOG macro does map out all the records.
