I just tested ZZSA under Hercules and like I thought, when you connect via Hercules TN3270 to simulate a console, after IPL no ZZSA messages appear until you press Enter. That means ZZSA sits waiting for an interrupt from a 3270 device, and uses that device for the rest of the communication. To me, that means it works just like SADUMP, DFDSS, and ICKDSF and there is no console configuration.

didn't see how to define a console as an HMC integretated console (hmcs) ?

Oh... you mean HMC console.  New answer:  I did not try that, but prior to 
going to that site I had never user ZZSA before so I tested it under Hercules, 
and that simulates the HMC console I believe, so I'd bet the answer is yes.

I used (well mostly watched) ZZSA work via ICC with no problems.  That

Does anyone know if the ZZSA tool (stand alone utilities) on the
CBTTape can use the HMC Integrated Console?
