The interim fix package display

The levels of information on the Interim fix package display are described.

The emgr command's -d flag displays the contents and topology of the efix package. The -d flag works with the -v (verbosity) flag. The default verbosity level is 1, but you can set the level to 1, 2, or 3. The syntax for interim fix package display is as follows:
emgr -d -e interim fixPackage | -f ListFile [-w Directory] [-v{1|2|3}]
For example, to get a level 1 verbosity output on the interim fix package test.102403.epkg.Z, type the following command.
# emgr -d test.102403.epkg.Z
The verbosity levels include the following information:
