Message Subscriptions

You can subscribe node IDs and user IDs to receive certain RSCS messages. If you use the SETMSG command or statement to subscribe to a message, the user receives a copy of that message each time it is issued. If you enter the SET command, the user only receives the message when it is issued to the RSCS console. RSCS uses two versions of the monitor entry (MONITENT) to represent message subscriptions: short version for the SET command and long version for the SETMSG command. See z/VM: RSCS Networking Planning and Configuration and z/VM: RSCS Networking Operation and Use for more information about message subscriptions.
