A message can be suppressed my an MPF exit, or an "automated operations" package. Even without those, a message must pass some criteria to be included. Those are listed here : https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.ieag300/iea3g371.htm (there is "Have the “hardcopy only” message delivery attribute" which migt be OK). To me the simplest way to ensure it is written to the SYSLOG is to use a DESC of either 1, 2, 3, 11, or 12. 1 is "Systen Failure" (nope, wouldn't use that). 2 is "Immediate Action Required" (nope). 3 is "Eventual Action Require" (perhaps). 11 is "Critical Eventual Action Required" (nope). 12 is "Important Information" (sound good to me). Of course, check that R1 is correct and then check R15 upon return to see if something "bad" happened. Also, as an alternative to WTO is the WTL macro. https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.ieaa900/iea3a9_Description23.htm But IBM says "IBM® recommends you use the WTO macro with the MCSFLAG=HRDCPY parameter instead of WTL, because WTO supplies more data than WTL." -- People in sleeping bags are the soft tacos of the bear world.
