Directing Messages to CA Remote Console

If you are also using CA Remote Console, you can direct messages from z/VM systems to CA Remote Console. For example, to send CA Remote Console VTAM messages from system VMPROD, issue this command on the z/OS system:

COLLECT PRODUCT=RCS SYSID=VMPROD JOBNAME=VTAM

RCS is the name that CA Remote Console uses to identify itself to CA MIM for z/OS. If you specify a different value for the SSNAME parameter on the RCSINIT statement for CA Remote Console, specify that value instead of RCS.

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 z/VM system through the CA MIM for z/OS DEFSYS statement is identical to the system ID assigned to that system by the DEFSYS statement for CA Remote Console.

For more information about the DEFSYS statement, see the CA MIM Resource Sharing for z/VM Programming Guide.
