Hi Phil,
z/VM has ALWAYS (since VM R6.0.) had the CONSOLE at 009 in the Directory
entry for users by convention.
You could DEF 9 3E1 to change it.

David

believe this to be true but I have never tried this. There may be a
couple caveats that can be discussed later if it solves your problem.
This is simple to test. From the z/OS VM user, detach all devices
specified in PARMLIB(CONSOL##). At the moment, forget he mentions
"NIP" device because this is almost always included in
PARMLIB(CONSOL##) which means you would have detached it. This is so
simple it's worth a try.
I will, when I can--maybe this weekend! That might be the answer, because the
original directory entry (I'm told) had the virtual console at 0009, but the
CONSOLxx has it at 03E1.
