How You Direct Messages to CA Remote Console

If you are using the CA Remote Console product, you can direct messages from other systems to CA Remote Console. For example, to send all messages that are assigned routing codes to CA Remote Console, issue the following command:

COLLECT PRODUCT=RCS SYSID=EXT ROUTCDE=ALL

RCS is the name that CA Remote Console uses to identify itself to the operating system. If you specify a different value for the SSNAME parameter on the RCSINIT statement for CA Remote Console, then specify that value instead of RCS on the COLLECT command. The first three characters of the value specified on the RCSINIT SSNAME statement must be RCS to ensure that CA MIC and CA Remote Console interface properly.

You still need to use the RCOLLECT command for CA Remote Console to indicate which messages an individual CA Remote Console session should receive.

Note: Make sure the system ID assigned to a system through the DEFSYS statement is identical to the system ID assigned to that system by the DEFSYS statement for CA Remote Console.
