For Vista I rewrote Tom's  'VSTEXEC' TSO command for VM.
It is available at < http://www.tombrennansoftware.com/other.html > as VMVISTA VMARC This allows changing the Window Title (and other options) of the current session from CMS
only if the emulator is VISTA
Then EXEC I use is --

-----Start EXEC --
/* Set Title Bar on Vista Screen */ parse arg title if title='' then do "identify (lifo" if rc<>0 then exit rc pull us at sysid . title='VM 'left(userid(),8)' at 'sysid end 'VMVISTA SetOption("General","WindowTitle","'title'")'
-----End EXEC ---

By changing the Title sessions are named even when the session is minimized.

My approach to start the termulator sessions in the same order and
have the most popular sessions always in the same session (and use
Alt-1, Alt-2 to go to the right system). I am using Tom Brennan's
Vista tn3270 which lets me also color the frame and border of the
session. It shows the IP hostname in frame of the window too. And I
use the ID command a lot when jumping through a dozen sessions.

In the past I have also worked with different colors for some of the
output via the CP SCREEN command (like red CP output on the production
systems - as if that were enough to prevent that accidental shutdown).
