Console services

Console services has two groups named as follows:

SYSMCS - has five members plus one member per system. For example, in a sysplex of four systems, console services group SYSMCS has nine members.

SYSMCS2 - has the number of members calculated as follows:

SYSMCS2 members = 1 + n + m

Where:      n = number of systems in the sysplex
            m = RMAX/256 + 1 (round m to the nearest whole number.)

RMAX is the value specified on the RMAX keyword of the
DEFAULT statement in the CONSOLxx parmlib member.

For example, in a sysplex of four systems and an RMAX value of 500, group SYSMCS2 has eight members. (SYSMCS2 = 1 + 4 + 3 = 8)
