Messages rerouted to a PPO

A message that is sent to PPOLOG or percolated to a PPO from the system console or from an SPO appears in the same format in which the message is defined in the appropriate USS table.

If the message is defined in a user-written table (specified on the USSTAB operand of the APPL definition statement or on the MODIFY TABLE command), VTAM® presents the message to the PPO in the format in which the message is defined in the user-written table.

If the message is not defined in a user-written table and if SSCPFM=USSNOP is specified on the APPL definition statement that defines the PPO, VTAM presents the message to the PPO in the format in which the message is defined in the IBM®-supplied USS table, ISTINCNO.

If the message is not defined in a user-written table and if SSCPFM=USSPOI is specified on the APPL definition statement that defines the PPO:
  • VTAM presents the message to the PPO in the format in which the message is defined in the IBM-supplied USS table, ISTCFCMM.
  • If the message is not defined in ISTCFCMM, VTAM presents the message to the PPO in the format in which the message is defined in the IBM-supplied USS table, ISTINCNO.
