Operand Abbreviation
DISPLAY D
FORMAT=COMPLETE COMP
FORMAT=CURRENT CUR
FORMAT=MODIFIED MOD
OPTION OPT

When using an abbreviation in place of an operand, code the abbreviation exactly as shown in the table. For example, when coding the abbreviation for FORMAT=CURRENT, code only CUR. Do not code FORMAT=CUR.

Purpose

The DISPLAY VTAMOPTS (VTAM® start options) command displays information about VTAM start options. The VTAM version and release, the date and time when VTAM was started, the component ID, and VTAM's node type are also displayed.

Operands

FORMAT
Specifies the type of information to be displayed.
FORMAT=CURRENT
Displays the current value of one or more start options.
FORMAT=COMPLETE
Displays detailed information about one or more start options. For each start option, VTAM displays the current value, the value that VTAM initialized with, and the source of the value that VTAM initialized with. The source can be a value specified in an ATCSTRxx start option list, a value entered by the operator during VTAM start, or a default value used in the absence of any other specification.
FORMAT=MODIFIED
Displays information about start options that have been modified since VTAM initialization. If an option has not been modified, it is not displayed.

For each modified start option, VTAM displays the current value, the value that VTAM initialized with, and the source of the value that VTAM initialized with. The source can be a value specified in an ATCSTRxx start option list, a value entered by the operator during VTAM start, or a default value used in the absence of any other specification.

FUNCTION
Specifies a group of related start options to display. If you specify FUNCTION, do not specify OPTION on the same command.
FUNCTION=APPNCHAR
Displays the start options that define APPN characteristics. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=APPNCHAR are also displayed using other specifications for FUNCTION. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=APPNCHAR are:
FUNCTION=CONNECT
Displays the start options that affect connectivity. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=CONNECT are:
FUNCTION=HPREE
Displays the start options that affect High Performance Routing (HPR) and Enterprise Extender (EE). The start options displayed using FUNCTION=HPREE are also displayed using other specifications for FUNCTION. The following start options are displayed using FUNCTION=HPREE:
FUNCTION=MESSAGES
Displays the start options that affect messages. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=MESSAGES are:
FUNCTION=NETMGMT
Displays the start options that affect network management. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=NETMGMT are also displayed using other specifications for FUNCTION. The following start options are displayed using FUNCTION=NETMGMT:
FUNCTION=PERFTUNE
Displays the start options that affect performance and tuning. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=PERFTUNE are:
FUNCTION=RECSTATS
Displays the start options that affect recording and statistics. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=RECSTATS are:
FUNCTION=SECURITY
Displays the start options that affect session security. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=SECURITY are:
FUNCTION=SESSCONT
Displays the start options that affect session control. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=SESSCONT are:
FUNCTION=SSCPCP
Displays the start options that define SSCP or CP characteristics. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=SSCPCP are:
FUNCTION=STORAGE
Displays the start options that define storage usage, except for the buffer pool start options. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=STORAGE are:
FUNCTION=SYSPLEX
Displays the start options that affect coupling facility and the sysplex. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=SYSPLEX are also displayed using other specifications for FUNCTION. The following start options are displayed using FUNCTION=SYSPLEX:
FUNCTION=TRACDUMP
Displays the start options that affect traces and dumps. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=TRACDUMP are:
FUNCTION=VTAMINIT
Displays the start options that affect VTAM initialization. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=VTAMINIT are:
FUNCTION=ZAPCON
Displays the start options that once were zappable constants. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=ZAPCON are also displayed using other specifications for FUNCTION. The start options displayed using FUNCTION=ZAPCON are:
OPTION=option
Specifies one or more start options to display. If you specify OPTION, do not specify FUNCTION on the same command. If OPTION=* is specified or assumed by default, VTAM displays information about all start options except INOPCODE, PROMPT, NOPROMPT, LISTBKUP, and the trace and buffer pool start options. The DISPLAY INOPCODE command can be used to display the current dump attributes. The DISPLAY TRACES command and the DISPLAY BFRUSE command can be used to display trace and buffer pool information. See the z/OS Communications Server: SNA Resource Definition Reference for a description of each start option.

For OPTION=LIST, VTAM displays the name of the start option list used during start processing. The value can be a supplemental list, such as LIST=1A. However, if the supplemental list contains errors and VTAM reverts to using defaults during start processing because LISTBKUP=DEFAULTS is in effect, the user-defined default list will be displayed. You can also issue a D NET,VTAMOPTS,FORMAT=COMPLETE command to find out the origin of the start option values.

For OPTION=CNMTAB, VTAM displays *BLANKS* if a user-defined table was not loaded. You can issue a D NET,VTAMOPTS,FORMAT=COMPLETE command to find out the origin of the start option value.

For OPTION=ENCRYPTN, the display might not exactly match the value specified for the ENCRYPTN start option.

The following list shows the values that can be displayed for ENCRYPTN for each value specified on the start option:
Start value
Display value
NO
NO
YES, 24, or 31
24 or 31
CCA
CCA_24 or CCA_31
CUSP
CUSP_24 or CUSP_31

For OPTION=OSIMGMT, VTAM displays only the value of the OSIMGMT start option. It does not indicate whether CMIP services is active.

For OPTION=STRGR or OPTION=STRMNPS, if no coupling facility is in use, this command shows the value as ***NA***. See z/OS MVS Setting Up a Sysplex for more information about coupling facilities and CFRM.

See the z/OS Communications Server: SNA Network Implementation Guide for more information about the sources of start options and which source takes precedence.

For OPTION=INOPDUMP, the display might not match the values that are coded for the INOPDUMP start option. The following values are valid:
  • ON, which represents an encoding of INOPDUMP=ON.
  • OFF, which represents an encoding of INOPDUMP=OFF.
  • One or more INOPDUMP control groups in the following format, where the INOPDUMP control group is listed if the current setting for the control group is INOPDUMP=ON.
    control_group1, ... ,control_group-x
Example 1
  1. VTAM is started with INOPDUMP=OFF.
  2. The operator issues MODIFY VTAMOPTS,INOPDUMP=(ON,ISM,ROCE).
  3. A DISPLAY VTAMOPTS,OPT=INOPDUMP displays a start option value of (ISM,ROCE), because those two control groups settings are INOPDUMP=ON.
Example 2
  1. VTAM is started with INOPDUMP=ON.
  2. Subsequently, the operator issues MODIFY VTAMOPTS,INOPDUMP=(OFF,BASE,XCF,QDIO).
  3. A DISPLAY VTAMOPTS,OPT=INOPDUMP displays a start option value of (IQDIO,ISM,ROCE,TCP), because those four control groups settings are still INOPDUMP=ON.

See z/OS Communications Server: SNA Resource Definition Reference for more information about coding the INOPDUMP start option.

Resulting display

The resulting display shows:
  • The VTAM version and release
  • The time and date that VTAM was started
  • The component ID
  • The node type
  • Information about the specified start options

If a start option is not applicable to your configuration, it is displayed with ***NA***. For example, ROUTERES is applicable only when VTAM is a network node. At an end node, it would be displayed as ROUTERES=***NA***.
