  This APAR provides a new z/OSMF RESTful service which is z/OS
  console services. The z/OS console services provide a
  programming interface for performing z/OS console operations.
  With the z/OS console services, you can issue system commands
  and work with both solicited messages (messages that were
  issued in response to the command) and unsolicited messages
  (other messages that might or might not have been issued in
  response to the command). z/OS console services establish an
  extended MCS (EMCS) console, which is then used to issue
  commands and receive messages.
  
  The operations that the z/OS console services provide are:
  1. Issue a command
  HTTP method and URI path:
  PUT /zosmf/restconsoles/consoles/consolename
  OR
  PUT /zosmf/restconsoles/consoles/defcn
  2. Get a command response
  GET /zosmf/restconsoles/consoles/console-name/solmsgs/
  Ckey-number
  OR
  GET /zosmf/restconsoles/consoles/defcn/solmsgs/Ckey-number
  3. Get the detect result for unsolicited messages
  GET /zosmf/restconsoles/consoles/consolename/detections/
  Dkey-number
  OR
  GET /zosmf/restconsoles/consoles/defcn/detections/Dkey-number
  
  Please refer to IBM z/OS Management Facility Programming Guide
  for details of z/OS console services.
