Parameters

-help | -h | -?

Lists help for the command. If you specify additional parameters and arguments, those parameters and arguments are ignored.

-s

Specifies that default information for each host system is displayed.

-l

Specifies that the following detailed information for each host system is displayed:

Column Label	Details
Host System	If the IBM® z/OS® host system is the system on which the copy services management server is installed, ZOS_NATIVE_CONNECTION is shown in this column. For AIX® and z/OS host systems that are connected by using an IP address or host name, the IP address or host name is shown.
Port	The port number for the connection to the host system.
Type	The type of host system. One of the following values is shown: AIX The host is an AIX system. ZOS_NATIVE The host is the z/OS system on which the copy services management server is installed. ZOS_IP The host is a z/OS system that is connected by using an IP address or host name.
Local Status	The status of the connection between the copy services management server and the host system.
Remote Status	In high availability (HA) environments that have an active and standby management server, the status of the connection between the remote server and the host system. If you are running the lshost command on the active server, the remote server is the standby server. If you are running the command on the standby server, the remote server is the active server. If the status of a host connection at the remote copy services management server cannot be determined, Unknown displays. This status might be because the HA configuration is disconnected or the status was not sent from the remote copy services management server.
Connection Message	If connection to the host system failed, an error message is shown.

-fmt { default | xml | delim | stanza }

Specifies the format of the output. You can specify one of these values:

default

Specifies that the output is displayed in tabular format using spaces as delimiters between columns. This is the default value.

xml

Specifies that the output is displayed in XML format.

delim

Specifies that output is displayed in a tabular format using commas as delimiters between columns.

To use a character other than a comma as the delimiter, specify -fmt delim -delim char , where char represents the character that you want to use as the delimiter. For example, if you want to use a colon (:) as the delimiter, use the following -fmt parameter:

-fmt delim -delim :

If you use a shell metacharacter as the delimiting character, enclose the character in quotation marks or single quotation marks. A blank space is not a valid character.

IP_Address | ZOS_NATIVE_CONNECTION | -

If you want to view specific host systems only, specifies the IP or host name for the host system or the value ZOS_NATIVE_CONNECTION.

If you want to list information for an AIX host system or a z/OS host system that is connected by using an IP address or host name, enter the IP address or host name for this parameter.

If the copy services management server is installed on the host system, enter ZOS_NATIVE_CONNECTION for this parameter.

Alternatively, use the dash (-) to specify that input for this parameter comes from an input stream (stdin). The dash is supported only in single-shot mode.
