TERMINAL: Requesting that volume space management messages appear at the terminal

Explanation: TERMINAL is an optional parameter specifying that all space management messages associated with the space management of a volume be sent to the system console and to the migration activity log.

Defaults: If you do not specify TERMINAL when you specify MIGRATIONLEVEL1, PRIMARY, or VOLUME, volume space management messages go only to the migration activity log.

Note: TERMINAL does not apply when you specify the DATASETNAME parameter. If you specify TERMINAL when it does not apply, DFSMShsm ignores it.
