Control‑O is the IOA Console Automation Product. The main Control‑O functions relevant to VM are

• issuing a VM CP command

  If MVS is running under VM, Control‑O can issue VM CP commands using parameter DO COMMAND.

• accessing VM machines using KOA

  The KeyStroke OpenAccess Facility (KOA) permits two-way communication between Control‑O and any VTAM application. If VM/VTAM is operated under VM, Control‑O can log onto a VM machine.
