Why ROUTCDE 11?
ROUTCDE 11 message is WTP (Write to Programmer) and is written to the JESYSMSG 
data set.
Most consoles or EMCS interfaces exclude ROUTCDE 11 messages, although they get 
written to the HARDCPY.

I think DESC 3 messages (EVENTUAL-ACTION-REQUIRED) get DOM-ed upon step end, 
but long-running jobs that are up for the life of the IPL or so, will need to 
DOM DESC-3 messages at some point...when the said ACTION has been taken...
