Type over the asterisk * in the M column of the selected job on the System Log screen with a non-blank character. Press ENTER.
The extended log appears.
Press PF3 (End) to return to the system log.
The following types of extended log are available:
JCL log
If (in the Job Maintenance facility) you specified JCL logging, the
JCL of the job run selected from the System Log screen is displayed in Editor
format, browse mode. The JCL log source is dependent upon the operating system,
in which the job has run.
SYSOUT log
If you specified the job SYSOUT to be logged after job termination,
the SYSOUT of the job run selected from the System Log screen is displayed in
Editor format, browse mode;
Operating system messages
If you specified operating system messages to be logged according to
the criteria defined in the Job Maintenance facility, the messages of the job
run selected from the System Log screen are displayed in Editor format, browse
mode.
In later versions of NOP, more types of extended log may be added.
Active JCL modifications
If you specified to log the changes made to an active/pregenerated
JCL using the corresponding option described in Default Setting
(2)
(Administration documentation), the changes are visible in
detail in the extended logging screen.
Log data can be written to the Natural standard output for printing or for transfer to other programs.
The batch utility NOPLP01P serves this purpose. It must be executed in a Natural batch job. The system files of Entire Operations must be correctly assigned.

Activity monitoring is a non-conversational display of Entire Operations events on a special terminal, for example in the computer center. Activity monitoring can be started on this terminal and can be controlled from any other terminal.
Activity monitoring is used to permanently display Entire Operations events that currently occur in your Entire Operations environment.
The following applies to the monitoring feature:
The activity monitoring facility receives its data from the Entire Operations log file.
The activity monitoring facility only displays the most important messages. Error messages and other very important messages appear highlighted.
The default setting displays events starting from the current time minus one hour. As the display is updated, it scrolls automatically. The start time and display refresh interval can be modified via the Control of Activity Monitoring option of the Special Functions system administration services described in the Administration documentation.
This section covers the following topics:
To start activity monitoring and display activities
At a Natural command prompt, enter the following command and press ENTER:
LOGON library-name
where library-name is the
name of your Entire Operations library, usually SYSEOR.
When you are logged on to the specified library, enter the following at the command prompt:
ACTIVITY
Or:
In an Entire Operations command line, enter the following direct
command and press ENTER:
ACTIVITY
Activity monitoring is started, and an Entire Operations Activity Display window similar to the example below opens:
