Title: (Paraphrase problem in a single statement)Add an Option On Set Observer for No Display

Detailed Problem Description: (Description of what you want changed - 400 character entry limit)

 

When dealing with a remote guest (VSE, z/OS, etc.) that is logged on but in use, it is often convenient to set observer to change or display some VM information. However, this currently is presented to the guest as well and may cause problems for the guest or at least confusion. It would be handy to have a quiet option that would present the results to the observer but not to the guest.
