You should be able to distinguish between the terminal groups on MVS and use RACF auditing or system automation to identify the users? Does TSO have something like a SYSPROF where you can pester the users? Or you could hack the USS10 msgs for that VTAM... We've done similar things when trying to migrate users from SNA gateways to direct tn3270 connections. Using the operator logon messages keep track of the users who could be advised about improved ways of working. My proposal to have an extra info screen from the SYSPROF (based on terminal type) was rejected because most of our users could not read (or understand) such directions and instructions had to be sent to the local coordinator instead.
