OVERVIEW
Logout is an effective solution to the problem of controlling an increasingly complex VSE environment; it is a comprehensive console management system with enhanced and extended console displays.
Logout's multiple console support enables the console function to be distributed across multiple terminals, in order to share workload between operators and action system messages more quickly.
KEY FEATURES
- Multiple console support
The console function can be distributed within a local VM/CMS or CICS environment, or across a VTAM network, which prevents bottlenecks resulting from having only one, over-utilized console for each z/VSE system - Remote operations
VSE can be operated remotely if required, offering greater flexibility - The SYSLOG subconsole
The current SYSLOG is separated from all other displays, which reduces console traffic, making it easier to monitor and process - Enhanced console displays
Logout provides fast redisplays, which do not interrupt the SYSLOG and do not appear on the hard copy file, making redisplay simpler to use; enhanced displays are available for all of the commands used to display POWER queues and individual queue entries as well as the output from currently running jobs - VM interface
Users running VSE under VM do not need a separate VM console as CP commands can be entered and responses displayed on any sub-console or on the SYSLOG - Message control
Messages can be automatically suppressed, retained or replied to and can be located using any search criteria that appear on the console, such as the message number or any part of the message text - Flexible reporting
the Analog facility enables tailored reports to be provided using the hard copy file records
