Based on routing codes, z/OS systems can receive and direct messages from external systems. Because this type of information is not included with z/VM messages, CA MIC for z/VM provides a way for you to assign routing codes to messages based on message prefix, message type, and originating user ID.
You can use the ROUTE command to assign routing codes to z/VM messages. The routing codes direct z/VM messages to certain consoles on z/OS systems. You can assign routing codes to messages by using the ALL, PREFIX, TYPE, or USER parameters on a ROUTE command. One or more route code numbers are assigned to selected messages using the ROUTCDE parameter.
The PREFIX parameter specifies messages by message ID. The TYPE parameter is used to assign routing codes to the following z/VM message types: SCIF, MSG, WNG, SMSG, IMSG, EMSG, and CPCONIO. The USER parameter represents the user ID where the message originated.
Examples:
To route all CA VM:Tape messages to the tape consoles on z/OS, issue one of the following commands:
ROUTE USER(VMTAPE) ROUTCDE(3,5) - or - ROUTE PREFIX(VMT*) ROUTCDE(3,5)
COLLECT DROUTCDE(ASIS) ROUTCDE(3,5) SYSID=ALL
In this example, one COLLECT command allows you to collect all tape-related messages from all systems and display them at one z/OS console.
It is not necessary to use the ROUTE command to collect messages from a z/VM system. To route all CA VM:Tape messages to the tape consoles on z/OS without using the ROUTE command, issue the following command on a z/OS system:
COLLECT DROUTCDE(3,5) JOBNAME(VMTAPE) SYSID=VMSYS1
Alternatively, you could collect all BrightStor VM:Tape messages to one specific console with either one of the following COLLECT commands:
COLLECT CONSOLE=XE13001 ROUTCDE(3,5) SYSID=ALL COLLECT CONSOLE=XE13001 JOBNAME(VMTAPE) SYSID=VMSYS1
For more information about the ROUTE command, see the Statement and Command Reference Guide.
