Are you trying to connect to the hardcopy SYSLOG device, if one id defined to
z/OS?
Or do you want to connect as a console terminal?
Or do you want to see what would go to the console on the HMC?
Or something else?
What do you get if you issue D C from an operator console on MVS?

what Sysplex is, and it is decades older than z16. Sysplex is a
software construct, not hardware, although certain hardware is required to
implement it.

I'm a little over my head on this, but isn't TSOLIB in TSO implemented with

In a Sysplex environment it is possible to shift the workload off of one system

Under this proposal, how would SUBMIT handle characters represented in the

The only way to determine the cause is to analyze the dump.
There is no "normally", though there are several "commonly".
