The secondary console facility (SCIF) can be used to send the console messages form any guest to a SVM (service virtual machine). On the SVM you would run PROP (programmable operator) to process the messages. PROP can be set up so that depending on what the message is it will respond to the message, log it, ignore it, or run a REXX program using it. Their are more actions that PROP can do but those are the most common.
All of the above has been part of VM for at least 20 years. :) Patrick Spinler wrote:
