IBM-Defined Synonyms

Command or Operand	Synonym
MODIFY	F

Purpose of Command

The SETTINGS command displays the current configuration settings for the requested Event/Automation Service task. The settings are displayed as console messages on the system console.

Operand Descriptions

procname

Specifies the Event/Automation Service job name.

TASK=taskid

Specifies the service task for which configuration settings are to be displayed. The taskid can have the following values:

ALERTA: The alert adapter service task.
ALERTC: The confirmed alert adapter service task.
MESSAGEA: The message adapter service task.
MESSAGEC: The confirmed message adapter service task.
EVENTRCV: The event receiver service task.
TRAPALRT: The trap to alert conversion task.
ALRTTRAP: The alert to trap conversion task.
GLOBAL: Display settings that are common for all services.
ALL: Display all settings.

Usage Notes

Consider the following when using the SETTINGS command:

The information returned for each service is dependent upon the service itself. Nearly all of these settings are provided by default if they are not explicitly provided through a startup parameter or a configuration file statement. If the following immediately follows the setting:

(C)

The setting was taken from a configuration file statement.

(D)

The setting was taken from the default.

(P)

The setting was taken from a startup parameter.
The settings for each service are derived from the statements in the service configuration file. All of the service configuration file statements have default values, except for the ServerLocation statement.
The configuration file used by each service can be specified either as a startup parameter or in the global configuration, or IHSAINIT, file.
The global Event/Automation Service settings include the name of the global configuration file, the PPI value, and the OUTSIZE parameter value.
Any settings that specify file names use the actual file name instead of the exact value from the configuration file statement. For example, if you have the AdapterCdsFile=IHSAACDS statement in the alert adapter configuration file, and data set NETVIEW.SCNMUXCL is provided on the IHSSMP3 data set definition statement in the Event/Automation Service startup procedure and contains member IHSAACDS, the actual value displayed by the SETTINGS command is as follows:
```
NETVIEW.SCNMUXCL(IHSAACDS) (C)
```
The settings provided on the Filter and FilterCache statements are not followed by an indication of how the setting was provided. These settings can be provided only from an adapter service configuration file. If there are no Filter or FilterCache statements in this file, these settings are not displayed.

Restrictions

You can specify only one TASK operand. If you want to specify more than one service task, separate each task ID with a comma and enclose the string within parentheses.

Example: Showing the alert adapter settings

To show the current alert adapter service settings, enter:

F IHSAEVNT,SETTINGS,TASK=ALERTA

The numeric value associated with Filter or FilterCache settings is equivalent to the position of the statement in the adapter configuration file, relative to the other Filter or FilterCache statements in the file.
