Routing Cross-System Messages

Routing messages from z/VM to z/OS requires the completion of two distinct procedures:

  1. Messages that are the potential subjects of a COLLECT command must be sent to the MIMGR service machine. This is done by directing SCIF messages to MIMGR, by sending MSG, MSGNOH, and WNG messages to MIMGR, or by running ATMCOMM. Any combination of these methods may be used. For more information on ATMCOMM, see the chapter "Using ATMCOMM."
  2. You must issue a COLLECT command (on a z/OS system) to identify which messages are to be transmitted.
