Hardcopy-only Message Routing

By default, CA MIC does not permit hardcopy-only messages to be routed across systems. However, you can optionally activate the CA MIC hardcopy-only message routing feature by specifying the SETOPTION CAPTURELOG=YES command in the MIMCMNDS member of the CA MIM parmlib. Once this has been done, you can add the LOGONLY parameter to your COLLECT commands so that only certain destinations receive the hardcopy-only messages.

For example, if you want the OPSS subsystem on SYSA to receive hardcopy-only messages (in addition to other message types) from systems SYSB and SYSC, you would add the LOGONLY parameter to your OPSS COLLECT command:

IFSYS SYSA
      COLLECT PROD=OPSS SYSID=(SYSB,SYSC) ROUTCDE=ALL ACTION WTOR LOGONLY
                                          MONITOR(JOBNAME,SESSION,STATUS)
ENDIF

After this COLLECT command executes on SYSA, the OPSS subsystem on SYSA begins receiving hardcopy-only messages (in addition to other message types) from SYSB and SYSC.
