George, How are the consoles defined in the directory entry for the z/OS guest? I.e. usually with something like: SPECIAL vdev 3270
Then your terminal emulator must be set to display the same 3270 model (Mod2=32 lines x 80; mod4=43 lines x 80, etc.). Then, the z/OS terminal must be varied online as a console. For example, if the 'vdev' was '0100', then at a z/OS console, enter: V 0100,console There's some z/OS parmlib member for consoles, too - perhaps CONSOL00?

There is no way to input data. I can dial into TSO np, even look at the console in EJES (we are JES3), and everything else looks fine. But just logging onto to ZOS guest through SuperSession and entering *b* shows the ZOS console output only without any command line at the bottom. We do have a VTAM vsm, but ZOS consoles are BTAM, not VTAM terminals.
