Hmmm, thats a good note. I decided to RTFM and see this snippet:

"IEFACTRT is the only SMF exit routine that can write to a job log, but only by 
passing the message to module IEFYS."

I'm wondering, after looking at some sample and production IEFACTRT programs, I 
find that WTO is *also* used to write something to a job log.

So the part 'but only by' is not true or am I missing something?

I also see in SYS1.SAMPLIB(IEEACTRT) (z/OS v2.1) some [old] comments about 
IEFYS, but there is apparently no usage of IEFYS, rather WTO is used.

Question: What is the difference between WTO and IEFYS inside IEFACTRT? [1] [2]

Just curious, if you don't mind please.

[1] - I know in IEFYS, you setup addresses of your message and length and then 
do a load and branch. In WTO, you also do basically the same thing, but this is 
a macro.

[2] - I see, in IEFACTRT, before you can use WTO, you need to save the 
registers, then do your WTO, then restore the registers.
