Function

To display information about the indicated line(s) and job transmitter.

This command has parameters you can use as a filtering technique to limit the type of information to search, or the amount of information to display. See Using filtering to control and display information for additional information.

One or more parameters on this command accepts wild cards. Parameter descriptions will note that.

Parameters

nnmm

Specifies the 1 to 4 numeric subscript (1-65535) defining the line(s) affected by this command.

n

Specifies the subscript (1-7) defining the job transmitter affected by this command.

LIMit

Displays the limits (in card images) for jobs that the job transmitter will select.

NODES=

Displays and filters all lines through which node can be reached.

STATUS[=ACTIVE|DRAINED|DRAINING|HALTED| INACTIVE|STARTING]

Displays information about JES2-managed devices. The following types of status can be displayed:

Type

Meaning

ACTIVE

JES2 is using the device for job processing and will continue to do as long as jobs are both available and eligible for the device.

DRAINED

JES2 does not use the device until you start it with a $S command.

DRAINING

JES2 is using the device to process jobs, but will stop using this device once the current function has completed.

HALTED

JES2 has either requested operator assistance or an operator has entered the $Z command to halt the device. To start the device, you must enter a $S command.

INACTIVE

JES2 is not using the device, but would do so if a job were both available and eligible for the device.

STARTING

The device is being started. Applies to FSS-owned devices only.

UNIT={SNA|devnum|/devnum}

Displays a 4-digit hexadecimal device number for a binary synchronous communication (BSC) line. You can specify wild cards on this parameter. See Using wildcards for additional information.

Device numbers can be specified by any of the following formats:

UNIT=ddd
UNIT=dddd
UNIT=/ddd
UNIT=/dddd

where ddd and dddd represent the device numbers.

A slash (/) can optionally precede the device number (for compatibility with other commands that require a slash to denote a 4-digit device number).

Specify UNIT=SNA to obtain information about a systems network architecture (SNA) line, or UNIT=TCP to obtain information about a TCP/IP line.

WS

Displays the work selection criteria for this line job transmitter.

Authority Required

This command requires display authority. The description of the $T RDRnn command explains how to ensure that the authority of the appropriate MVS™ system command group is assigned. The $T INTRDR command sets the command authority for internal readers.

This command requires read security access authority. For a description of assigning command input authority, see z/OS JES2 Initialization and Tuning Guide, SA32-0991.

Scope

Single member. The response to this command will be a display of information about this member only. You might want to use this command to get information about all members in the MAS. To do so, you can use the MVS ROUTE *ALL command to issue this command to all active members (if the JES2 command character is the same on all members). See z/OS MVS System Commands, SA38-0666 for more information on using the ROUTE *ALL command.

Messages

The $HASP603 message displays information about the specified job transmitter.

JES2 displays information about job transmitter 1 on line 15.
