IEF403I when no other console than the HMC

[Mauri Kanter]

Hi list:

We are issuing the command
MN JOBNAMES,T
from our COMMNDxx

In addition our CONSOLxx member contains
MONITOR(JOBNAMES-T)
for each defined console

Now, there are cases on which we want to IPL our DR site (a shadow image
copy of the first, using a different CPC) without any of the actual hardware
consoles defined on our CONSOLxx, but just with the HMC console.

The system IPLs ok but the messages IEF403I and IEF404I do not appear ...
After the system is up, if we open a VTAM SMCS console the messages
appear, and if we close the just opened SMCS console again the IEF403I and
IEF404I stop to appear. Long history short, looks that we need at least one
target console active in order to receive the IEF403I and IEF404I messages.

We do need the IEF403I and IEF404I messages for our IPL automation rules.

Any idea how to force the system to issue the IEF403I and IEF404I messages
when only the HMC console is available ?

Thanks in advance.

Mauri.

Hi Mauri,

Do you have MONITOR (JOBNAMES-T) specified in your HMC console definition, as in:

CONSOLE DEVNUM(SYSCONS)
NAME(CNSS&SYSNAME.)
AUTH(MASTER)
ROUTCODE(1,2,10)
LEVEL(ALL,NB)
MONITOR(JOBNAMES-T)
MSCOPE(*)
CMDSYS(*)

The MONITOR command is not supported in COMMNDxx any more.
Use COM='SETCON MN,JOBNAMES=(ON,LOG),T=ON' instead.

See MVS Console Commands

Also, the comment by the original author of this topic that he must have at
least one console active in order to get the IEF403/IEF404I messages
produced is no longer true. You can get these messages produced, if you
want, without having to display them on any console -- this was done
specifically for automation purposes. See the Commands book.
