I forgot to add: If you don't want to change MSGCLASS globally
for all STCs, you can set this up as a started job (a JOBCARD for an STC)
if you have started jobs implemented and just have the MSGCLASS you
want in that job card. We do this for STCs we want to go to our
msgclass archival software (CICS for example). I also do it to change
some STCs to go to our "bit bucket" class which is "Z".
Example STC JOBCARD for INIT:
//INIT JOB 'INIT',MSGLEVEL=(0,0),MSGCLASS=Z
//INIT EXEC PROC=INIT
Still another option is to just start the task with the MSGCLASS you desire.
Example:
S ASM2TASK,MSGCLASS=X
