Message Information (Option 5.5)

Use OPSVIEW option 5.5 to find information about CA OPS/MVS messages using only the numeric portion of the message ID. The actual message IDs vary by subsystem name. The message severity, which is the last character of the ID, can be customized by using the OPSPARM command processor or the OPSPRM OPS/REXX function. This means that each installation may see slightly different message IDs. This application allows you to find information about any message using the invariant numeric portion of the message ID.

Display the message information using either ISPF Browse or View.

Note: For this application to function correctly, you must have the CA OPS/MVS HELP file allocated to the SYSHELP DD.
