smsgiucv uses *MSG plus CP SET SMSG IUCV so that incoming SMSGs are sent to *MSG. > However, what I need here would be to connect to *MSG in order to make > commands available like e.g.: > > vmcp send linux001 detach 100 > > or in other words, to send commands to machines that run CMS. It doesn't matter if the target runs CMS or Linux. The output that comes to your virtual machine when the target writes to its console will be via class 8 (SCIF) messages. If you use the CP FOR command instead (for CP commands), then the output is from YOUR virtual machine and will appear as class 3 (you must CP SET CPCONIO IUCV). Every line in the output will be a separate IUCV message. Your application must decide how long to wait before deciding that it has reach end of command, then sever the connection to *MSG, and reset the CPCONIO state, if needed.
