OMVSDATA subcommand

The IPCS OMVSDATA subcommand formats dump information about z/OS UNIX. To request a particular report, specify the report type, a level of detail, and if desired, a filtering keyword. If you do not specify parameters, you will see the process summary report.

OMVSDATA divides the information about z/OS UNIX into six reports. Each report corresponds to the OMVSDATA keywords listed in Table 1.

Table 1. Summary: OMVSDATA keywords
Keyword	Report Displays	See topic
COMMUNICATIONS	Information about pseudo terminal user connections and OCS remote terminal connections.	OMVSDATA COMMUNICATIONS SUMMARY subcommand output
FILE	Information about each z/OS UNIX file system type and its mounted file systems.	OMVSDATA FILE SUMMARY subcommand output
IPC	Information about interprocess communication activity for shared memory, message queues and semaphores.	OMVSDATA IPC SUMMARY subcommand output
NETSTAT	Information about High Speed Access Services (HSAS). The NETSTAT report type has six subtypes: SOCKETS (the default), ROUTE, INTERFACE, PERFORMANCE, STATISTICS, and MEMORY.	OMVSDATA PROCESS SUMMARY subcommand output
PROCESS	Information about kernel processes. PROCESS is the default.	OMVSDATA PROCESS SUMMARY subcommand output
STORAGE	Information about the storage manager cell pools.	OMVSDATA STORAGE SUMMARY subcommand output

For each report type, you can select one or more of the following levels:

SUMMARY: Displays summary information for each requested report type. SUMMARY is the default if no level is specified.
EXCEPTION: Displays diagnostic information for error or exceptional conditions for each requested report type.
DETAIL: Displays detailed information for each requested report type.

For each report, you can select one or more of the following filtering keywords to limit the amount of data in the report:

ASIDLIST(asidlist): Requests that information be provided for the asids specified in asidlist. ASIDLIST(asidlist) can be specified either as a single ASID or as a range of ASIDs. When a range is specified, the two ASIDs (first and last in the range) must be separated by a colon. The ASID can range from 1 through 65 535. An ASID can be expressed using the notation X'nnn', F 'nnn', or B'nnn'. An unqualified number is assumed to be fixed. The alias is ASID.
USERLIST(userlist): Requests that information displayed be restricted to that associated with the user IDs specified in userlist. The contents of userlist may contain one or more user IDs, separated by commas. USERLIST (userlist) can be specified as a 1-to-8-character name. The alias is USER.
PROCESSID: For the NETSTAT Sockets and NETSTAT Detail report types only. Requests that information be provided for a single PID. PROCESSID may contain up to 8 hexadecimal characters.
