CICSCMD INQ CONNECTION—Inquire Connection Status

The CICSCMD INQ CONNECTION command inquires about the status of CICS-defined connections. It returns the RCIW08 messages that indicate the status of the selected connections. The returned information is similar to that returned by the CICS CEMT INQUIRE CONNECTION transaction.

This command has the following format:

CICSCMD cics_region_name INQ CONNECTION[(connection_name_mask)]

cics_region_name

Defines the CICS region from which the information is required.

connection_name_mask

(Optional) Specifies the connections to which the inquiry applies. The value can be either the name or a mask. If you use a mask, it must be of the following form: connection_name_prefix*. If it is not specified, the inquiry applies to all connections defined in the CICS region.

Example:

CICSCMD CICSA INQ CONN

CICSCMD CICSA INQ CONN(CICB)

CICSCMD CICSA INQ CONN(CIC*)
