Normally you have to tell z/os that you want to communicate with it. From the HMC, normally that means it is necessary to issue a V CN(*),ACTIVATE command from the Operating System notebook (messages panel) to cause the operating system messages to flow through the console integration interface.
The directions are normally in the HMC guide for your processor.
