Don, I just tail -f'd my dsmulog logfile.  It appears to cache, so that
won't be a realtime look at what is happening.

Gerald, you might try a wrapper that prepends a timestamp.  Maybe something
like:

#!/usr/bin/ksh
function timestamp {
   while read line; do
      ts=`date +"%D   %T"`
      echo "$ts $line"
   done
}
dsmadmc -id=? -pa=? -console | timestamp
