IMSINFO: Display Information
These commands are issued when the INGIMS REQ=INFO or INGIMS REQ=XINFO command is used to display the state of the selected IMS Control or DBCTL region. The commands are issued via the IMS subsystem ID on an MVS EMCS console and the resulting messages are either displayed on the INGIMS panel or written to the user's NetView console.
For further information about the INFO request, see the description of the INGIMS command in IBM Z® System Automation Operator's Commands.
Use user processing on the Message Processing panel:

Keyword and Parameter Definitions
- description
- This is text that is placed before the output of IMS_command. It can be used to identify the command output in the output stream. The description can be any string, but must be enclosed in quotation marks.
- IMS_command
- This is the command that is to be executed. It

The output is collected and displayed. The command can be any valid IMS Type 1 or Type 2 command. If
you user a Type 2 command, be sure to also use INGIMS REQ=XINFO. The
