TGPS TGP

Purpose

The DISPLAY TGPS (transmission group profiles) command displays the currently defined TG profiles by name, along with the transmission group characteristics that they represent. For more information about defining a transmission group profile, see the z/OS Communications Server: SNA Resource Definition Reference. This command is valid only when it is issued at an APPN node (network node, end node, interchange node, or migration data host).

Operands

ID=tg_profile_name
Specifies the name of one or more transmission group profiles to display. If you omit the ID operand, all profiles are displayed.

Depending on the value of the DSPLYWLD start option, wildcard values can be used for this operand. For more information about using wildcards, see Using wildcard names.

Attention: Specifying a wildcard name might degrade performance because VTAM® checks every transmission group profile in the network.
MAX
Specifies the maximum number of transmission group profiles that VTAM displays for this command.
MAX=*
Specifies that the value of the DSPLYMAX start option is used to limit the display output.
MAX=number_of_resources
Specifies the number of transmission group profiles that VTAM displays for this command. The valid range is 1–value of DSPLYMAX. The default is the value specified for the DSPLYDEF start option.

Specifying MAX limits the display output. VTAM searches only for the number of instances that you have specified. When that number is found, VTAM does not search any further. This saves processing time for the command and gives you control over the amount of display output generated by the command. If fewer transmission group profiles are found than you have specified on MAX, VTAM displays only the transmission group profiles that are found.

Resulting display

The resulting display shows the TG profile names and the TG characteristics that are defined to VTAM. The TG characteristics are shown in a 16-byte hex string.
Byte
Description
1
Flag byte. This byte is zero when you display a TG profile, but other values might appear when you display the TG characteristics for an active resource (for example, the output of the DISPLAY ADJCP command).
2
Capacity. This value corresponds to the CAPACITY value coded in the TGP definition statement. The displayed value is an internal representation of the coded value. For more information about how the CAPACITY value coded in the TG profile is mapped to the internal representation used by VTAM, see the z/OS Communications Server: SNA Resource Definition Reference.
3–7
Reserved (zero)
8
Cost per unit time. This value corresponds to the COSTTIME value coded in the TGP definition statement.
9
Cost per byte. This value corresponds to the COSTBYTE value coded in the TGP definition statement.
10
Reserved (zero)
11
Security. This value corresponds to the SECURITY value coded in the TGP definition statement as follows:
X'01'
UNSECURE
X'20'
PUBLIC
X'40'
UNDERGRO
X'60'
SECURE
X'80'
GUARDED
X'A0'
ENCRYPT
X'C0'
SHIELDED
12
Propagation delay. This value corresponds to the PDELAY value coded in the TGP definition statement as follows:
X'4C'
NEGLIGIB
X'71'
TERRESTR
X'91'
PACKET
X'99'
LONG
13
Reserved (zero)
14–16
User-defined. These values correspond to the values coded for UPARM1, UPARM2, and UPARM3 respectively in the TGP definition statement.
