We are z/OS V1R4 and currently configuring V1R7. What is a SMCS. I am
sure it is a console, but what is the difference between a MCS and a
SMCS? Any help would be appreciated.

http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/iea2g360/1.2.1 says, " SMCS consoles are devices that do not have to be locally attached to an MVS system and provide the basic communication between operators and MVS. SMCS consoles use z/OS Communications Server to provide communication between operators and MVS instead of direct I/O to the console device. SMCS consoles are available as of z/OS V1R1."

I recommend you search the above book for the string 'SMCS' and read what you find...
