Oops. You are absolutely correct, I got the names backwards. So what it putatively says is that allocation and initiation/termination messages are captured, but WTO's and other "console" messages are NOT captured?

I think this is backwards, at least if using the SDSF terminology. What SDSF calls JESYSMSG contains allocation messages (IGD and IEF), while JESMSGLOG is the JESn-captured extract of WTOs written to the system SYSLOG. JESYSMSG also contains *some* application program WTOs, but I haven't put the effort into figuring out which ones. Maybe it's as simple as those with ROUTCDE 11. I've thought about a WTO exit of one sort or another that would capture WTOs from BPXAS processes, and write them to the JES log of their parent process. Of course the parent may have gone away, and there are various other problems, but it should be doable. At least they are already available in the system-wide SYSLOG, but things like allocation messages do indeed seem to go into a bit-bucket.
