ALWAYSWTO statement

Some TCP/IP servers, such as SMTP, SNMPQE, LPD, and Miscellaneous server, can use the ALWAYSWTO statement to issue all of their messages as Write To Operator (WTO) messages. This is in addition to their messages being sent to the server's MVS™ joblog output. Omitting the ALWAYSWTO statement causes the server messages to be sent only to the server's MVS job output.

Guideline: Do not specify ALWAYSWTO YES unless requested by IBM® service. Specifying YES can generate a large volume of system operator console messages.
