Sending messages to the z/OS system console

In an XRF environment, the real z/OS system console name is the RSE name specified in the HSB member. For a non-XRF subsystem, the real system console name is the IMS™ ID. The generic z/OS system console name is always WTOR. The generic name is translated to the real LTERM name when a message is sent to the z/OS system console.

Because each z/OS system console has a unique LTERM name, a message can be sent to any z/OS system console in the sysplex if the real LTERM name (not the generic name) is used.
