Keyword and parameter descriptions
You must specify a service for which you want to display status information.
You can specify a service by using either a specific service name or a generic
service name. By using a generic service name, you can display either:
- Status information for all service definitions, by using a single asterisk
(*), or
- Status information for one or more services that match the specified name.
- (generic-service-name)
- The name of the service definition for which status information is to
be displayed. A single asterisk (*) specifies that information for
all connection identifiers is to be displayed. A character string with an
asterisk at the end matches all services with the string followed by zero
or more characters.
- WHERE
- Specify a filter condition to display status information for those services
that satisfy the selection criterion of the filter condition. The filter condition
is in three parts: filter-keyword, operator, and filter-value:
- filter-keyword
- Any parameter that can be used to display attributes for this DISPLAY
command.
- operator
- This is used to determine whether a service satisfies the filter value
on the given filter keyword. The operators are:
- LT
- Less than
- GT
- Greater than
- EQ
- Equal to
- NE
- Not equal to
- LE
- Less than or equal to
- GE
- Greater than or equal to
- filter-value
- The value that the attribute value must be tested against using the
operator. Depending on the filter-keyword, this can be:
- An explicit value, that is a valid value for the attribute being tested.
You can use operators LT, GT, EQ, NE, LE or GE only. However, if the attribute
value is one from a possible set of values on a parameter (for example, the
value MANUAL on the CONTROL parameter), you can only use EQ or NE.
- A generic value. This is a character string. with an asterisk at the end,
for example ABC*. If the operator is LK, all items where the attribute
value begins with the string (ABC in the example) are listed. If the operator
is NL, all items where the attribute value does not begin with the string
are listed.
You cannot use a generic filter-value for parameters with numeric
values or with one of a set of values.
- ALL
- Display all the status information for each specified service. This
is the default if you do not specify a generic name, and do not request any
specific parameters.
