Is anyone aware of a utility for a MOTD (Message of the day) utility for MVS? I seem to remember back 40yr ago we always got a humorous message as I am guessing a broadcast message when we logged on, sometimes it was informative like ¡®the system will be unavailable from 18:00 to 20:00¡¯ or other times it just was funny.

Was this just the operators manually creating a MOTD (obviously the maint schedule would be), or is there a utility to generate a automatic message? I could not find anything in searching CBT or Google, other than ones for old Unix versions or Windows.



Thanks,
Dave
