MODIFY F

Purpose

Use the MODIFY PPOLOG command to request that VTAM® start or stop sending copies of VTAM operator commands and VTAM messages to the primary program operator (PPO).

If the PPOLOG option is in effect, messages that were suppressed by the MODIFY SUPP command or the SUPP start option are still sent to the primary program operator, even though those messages do not appear on the system console.

PPOLOG is supported by the Tivoli® NetView® for z/OS®. Use of this command requires the system to have a primary program operator such as the Tivoli NetView for z/OS, and requires that the primary program operator can support the option.

Note: You can use the MODIFY VTAMOPTS command to perform the same function as this command.
