We have been using a stripped down version of the sample IEEACTRT for years
now to write job and step return codes to the consoles and I've always
noticed when starting or stopping an STC we receive an IEF170I message
immediately following the expected IEFACTRT WTO.  For example:

IEF170I 1 SUBMIT       SUBMIT      SUBMIT      IEBGENER     0000

This output is only written to Hardcopy, not the consoles.  In our exit we
let the ROUTE codes and MCSFLAGS default.  When experimenting with the IBM
default exit which specifies ROUTE codes and MCSFLAGS, I noticed the
MCSFLAGS seem to control whether this IEF170I message is written or not.
IBM's default is:

MCSFLAG  DC    B'1000001000000000' ROUT+HRDCPY
*                0123456789ABCDEF

The problem, when using these MCSFLAG settings is that the return codes are
then only written to the hardcopy and not the consoles.  We would like them
written to the consoles also.  Is this something I have to live with or is
there some trick I don't know??  Thanks for all of your help.
