Tech Tip:
Restricting Access to JOBLOG Deletion with StandGuard
Have you ever tried to reference a joblog to troubleshoot a problem, only to find another user has deleted the joblog? This can cause frustration and leave you with no way of finding out what exactly happened to cause an error. With StandGuard, you can easily restrict who has access to delete joblogs and prevent this frustrating scenario in the future. (Requires a valid StandGuard support ID and password.)

Tech Tip:
Recording Screens to an Output File with PeekPlus
Have you ever wondered what exactly your Night Operator is doing when you’re not there? Wouldn’t it be nice to keep track of their screens to review the following morning? Or do you have trouble with someone answering messages incorrectly on the Console during day-end operations? With PeekPlus, the PEEK command allows you to document the screen contents of another interactive job and to send the screens to a file or printer. (Requires a valid PeekPlus support ID and password.)
