Stephen, you wrote "syslog", -- I write "SYSLOG" in majuscel as seen in IBM manuals as abbrevation for system log. You did not ask for "OPERLOG", "hardcopy log", "operator console", "master console" etc (I am not sure about permutation of minuscel and majuscel). Then, SYSLOG as described in "MVS Planning: Operations" is just the data set of your primary job entry system's spool space (I would assume JES2 or JES3). So, I would not expect console output to appear in that data set unless explicitly requested by e.g. requesting the MVS console command LOG.
However, thinking a little bit further: the SYSLOG can be defined as media for the hardcopy log. Then, things are a little bit different. For example, we have set up our CONSOLxx parmlib member to always record command responses to hardcopy log -- from any console, including eMCS consoles. Because of this: yes, all our messages from REXX eMCS consoles are also occurring in SYSLOG.
