Mats, The logger command is available on Red Hat also, as part of the util-linux-2.11f-9 package. The question I have is, do you just want the message to go to the console of the Linux/390 guest, or do you want it to go somewhere else so that automation can pick it up? If the latter, then, either the hcp command, or Neale's recommendation to turn on VM's syslog facility would be more useful.
