Converting from old USS Unix message interface to new USS SYSLOGD interface

Issue/Introduction

Having a problem converting from the old started task for UNIX messages to the new one, here's some of what we have going on so far:

USS SYSLOG SERVER:

OPSSLGP -  is shutdown with Return 0

 

SLGOUT:

OPUSSRSL: read Result=40(28) RC=1127(467) RSN=0(0)

OPUSSLG1: FSUM7351 not found

 

Environment

OPS/MVS

Resolution

The error messages can be caused by one of the 2 reasons below:

1) Incorrect PATH in the OPSSLGP environmental variable files (DD ENVFILE)

2) Lack of authorization of the userid of the task OPSSLGP to access this path/file

This file looks like below and a sample value of the path is marked in yellow:
