  4. Enter the name of the library that contains the message queue in the message queue Library field.
  5. Optional: To change the delivery notification, specify the Delivery (DLVRY) parameter.
    Note: To view a list of values for the delivery parameter, press F1 (Help).
  6. Press F10 (Additional Parameters).
  7. To limit message delivery by severity codes, specify the numeric value that you want to view in the field of the Severity code filter (SEV) parameter field.
