Issue/Introduction

There are records in the Top Secret audit & tracking file but the SMF80 records are not recorded in SMF.

The following output is obtained running  TSSTRACK with the command  EVENT(ALL) ACID(userx) TIME(1200)  :

 

S-TIME-VC-JOB/USR-FFM-ACIDNAME-RDR/TERM-DRC-R/ACCES/A-SEC-PROGRAM--RES/CLS/NAME
=-====-==-========-==-========-========-===-=========-===-========-====-=======
A 1200   jobxxxxx 14F userx            OK            INI program      *BELOW*
                 NAME=userx                                    
A 1200   jobxxxxx 14F userx            OK            INI program            
A 1200   jobxxxxx 14F userx            OK            INI program
A 1200   jobxxxxx 14F userx            OK            TRM program

 

The LOG control option is:

 

TSS9660I VERSION=16.0.01  KO                                         
 TSS9661I        CA Top Secret BASE     Status                        
 LOG(INIT,SMF,SEC9,MSG)                              

What could be the reason for no SMF80 records in SMF if the LOG control option is defined with SMF?

 

 

Environment

Top Secret 16.0

Cause

In the output of the TSSTRACK the facility (FFM column) related to these records is '14'

The following command can be used to list all the facilities and their IDs:

 

TSS MODI FAC(ALL) 

 

Once the facility with ID=14 is identified use the following command to display the facility:

 

tss modify(FACILITY(facility)    

TSS9550I FACILITY DISPLAY FOR facility                         
TSS9551I INITPGM=pgm      ID=14 TYPE=099                                
....                                  
TSS9553I MODE=mode  LOGGING=INIT,MSG,SEC9       

This facility does not have SMF in the LOG suboption.

The LOG suboption in the facility overrides the LOG control option so the facility with ID=14 is not recording in SMF

Resolution

Update the LOG suboption of the facility to add SMF

 

 tss modify(FAC(facility(LOG(INIT,MSG,SEC9,SMF)))
