Your virtual machine definition has to be in synch with the guest OS. Your
console definitions are part of that.

Well, doh: I finally decided to just try it:
CP SEND CP ETPGZ1D DEFINE GRAF FFF
CP SEND CP ETPGZ1D VINPUT VMSG VARY CN(*),ACT
...and now I'm seeing output as SECUSER!
I do wonder if this will Just Work at IPL time, or not until that VARY is
issued. I guess I'll find out when I get a chance.
So presumably the thing that connects this is:
CONSOLE DEVNUM(FFF) ROUTCODE(ALL)
UNIT(3277-2)
AUTH(ALL)
DEL(RD)
RNUM(19)
RTME(1)
MFORM(J,T)
SEG(19)
AREA(NONE)
NAME(S0W10FFF)
It's certainly what led me to try that device address. 03E1 is the "real"
console per z/VM (that's what QUERY VIRTUAL CONSOLE shows on the guest). And
that wants to be in TERMINAL CONMODE 3270, I think. Certainly when it is, and
you log onto it, you get the scrolling full-screen z/OS console.
Wish I understood this better--I'm sure it's all there, just not in terms I
grok as a VMer.
