TCQ Status and State Values

The SELECT PROCESS command displays IBM® Connect:Direct® status values, task state values, and transport state values. These are defined in the following table:

Value Definition
IBM Connect:Direct Status Value Each Process on the TCQ has an associated IBM Connect:Direct status value. This status value has a unique meaning determined by which queue the Process is in. The SELECT PROCESS command displays IBM Connect:Direct status values.
IBM Connect:Direct Task State Values When a Process is in the Execution queue, the SELECT PROCESS command also displays a IBM Connect:Direct task state value. The state values are provided for information purposes. You cannot modify or control them using IBM Connect:Direct commands. The task state value shows the current state of the Process. Usually, IBM Connect:Direct tasks are waiting for completion of a service such as File I/O, IBM Connect:Direct locked resource, or VTAM I/O.
Transport State Values When a Process is on the Execution queue, the SELECT PROCESS command can also display a transport state value, depending on timing. The state values are provided for informational purposes. You cannot modify or control them using IBM Connect:Direct commands. For example, if the Process is currently in a VTAM I/O state, the SELECT PROCESS output can show a further state value such as send or receive.

While a Process is executing, the SELECT PROCESS command displays the number of file blocks or records and VTAM request/response units (RUs) sent or received. This display gives you an indication of the status of COPY statements on the Process.
