Examples of the COLLECT Command

The following examples illustrate possible uses of the COLLECT command.

Examples:

To allow z/OS console CON1 to receive CP messages (messages with the message ID HCP) from system VMSYS1, issue the following command:
```
COLLECT CONSOLE=CON1 SYSID=VMSYS1 MSGID=HCP*
```
For TSO user VTAMOPER to receive messages from the VTAM service machines (VTAM and VTAMTEST) on system VMSYS1, issue the following command:
```
COLLECT TSOUSER=VTAMOPER SYSID=VMSYS1 JOBNAME=VTAM*
```
To collect all CA MIM messages except messages beginning with MIM21, issue the following command:
```
COLLECT SOURCE SYSID=(VMSYS1,VMSYS2) MSGID=MIM* NOMSGID=MIM21*
```

In the last example, messages sent from systems VMSYS1 and VMSYS2 will be received by the z/OS console where the command was issued. Messages beginning with MIM21 will not be received.
