DISPLAY OUTPUT STATUS Command

The DISPLAY OUTPUT STATUS command displays or edits the status of output in the output library.

The following is the syntax for the command to set this option:

►►─ DISPLAY ─ OUTPUT ─ DESTINATION ─ dest ─┬──────────┬─ STATUS ──────────────►◄
                                           ├─ OWN ◄ ──┤
                                           ├─ ALL ────┤
                                           ├─ name ───┤
                                           └─ number ─┘
OWN

Displays the status of outputs under the user's identification. This is the default. DISPLAY OUTPUT STATUS with no operands obtains the same display.

ALL

Displays the status of all outputs.

name

Displays the status of the output with the specified one- to eight-character name. If the name is not unique, a warning message and a list of all outputs with that name appear.

number

On the output status display, you can position the cursor on the line showing an output and type a command to perform one of the following functions:

D or S

Display output member.

H

Alters the disposition to hold.

K or L

Alters the disposition to keep.

P

Print output member. Valid only after ALTER OUT modified the disposition of the member.

R

Alters the disposition to ready.

Z

Delete output member.
