You can run a Virtual Terminal Manager (VTM) component trace with the user data field set to Telnet.
For the trace TCP/IP application (TRCTCPAPP) command, the listing of the VTM component trace shows up as a spooled file, called VTMTRACE with the user data field set to TELNET. The system places this file in the default output queue of the profile that runs the TRCTCPAPP *TELNET *OFF call. At the same time, all server job flight recorders are dumped to spooled files called QTOCTTRC with user data set to QTVnnnnnn.
Here is an example of what you see in your interactive job log when you perform a TRCTCPAPP *OFF call

Only one file that is called VTMTRACE that is created. If SSL Telnet mode is operational on the server, you may have one or more QTOCTTRC files.
Here is an example of a QTOCTTRC file. This spooled file is a Telnet server job (QTVTELNET) as opposed to a QTVDEVICE job.
