How to print an audit trail report

To print an audit trail report:

  1. Specify the name of the audit trail data set that contains the audit trail data you want to print (Data set name).
    If File Manager created the audit trail data set, the name is in the format userid.IMSAUDIT.Dyymmdd.Thhmmss where:
    userid
    is the ID of the user
    IMSAUDIT
    is a constant that identifies the data set as an audit log (trail)
    Dyymmdd
    is the date File Manager created the audit trail data set
    Thhmmss
    is the time File Manager created the audit trail data set
    Note: If the AUDITHLQ option is set in FMN0POPT (see Customization Guide), audit trail data sets have the name audithlq.FMNLOG.Dyymmdd.Thhmmss.

    If you created the audit trail data set yourself, use the data set name you specified in the supplied batch job FMNSMFX. For details, see the File Manager Customization Guide.

  2. To help identify your audit trail report, use the Description entry field. If the description contains embedded spaces, you must enclose it in quotation marks. The description you enter appears on the Formatted Audit Event Records section of the report.
  3. Select the processing options you want:
    Formatted print
    Displays report entries in formatted character representation, rather than hexadecimal format.
    Print only changed fields
    Limits the amount of printed lines.
    Delete data set after printing
    Whether to keep or delete the data set after it is printed.
    Browse report
    The audit trail report is displayed immediately.
    Note: The contents of the audit trail report are transferred to a SYSOUT class as specified by the PRINTOUT print option on the Set Print Processing Options panel. To browse the audit trail report, the PRINTOUT print option should be set to SYSOUT=c.
