1. Logon to TCPMAINT 2. NETSTAT CP CLOSE CONS 3. A RDR file will arrive from TCPIP 4. RDRLIST If you were logged onto the OPERATOR and wanted to look at the log: 1. NETSTAT CP CLOSE CONS TO OPERATOR 2. RDRLIST This requires that OPERATOR be authorized in the Obey list in PROFILE TCPIP so that s/he can issue "NETSTAT CP" commands. As you know, a console log on a "vanilla" VM system is a spool file. An open spool file cannot be read by other virtual machine, so you need to tell the owning virtual machine to close the current spool file and start a new one (SPOOL CONS CLOSE or CLOSE CONS). There are add-on products such as IBM Operations Manager for z/VM that collect console logs without using the spool. You have real-time access to the active logs for any number of virtual machines.
