The output of NonStop NET/MASTER MS commands executed in a background
processing environment is processed in environment-dependent ways: what happens
to the output depends on the virtual user that controls the background processing
environment.
For example, if the Background Logger (BLOG) controls the environment, the results
are sent only the activity log. If the Background Monitor (BMON) controls the
environment, the results are sent to all monitor terminals, as well as the activity log.
Table 16-4, earlier in this section, summarizes where results from NonStop
NET/MASTER MS commands are sent when executed by a virtual user.
