Work with channel status on IBM i

We can work with the channel status from the Work with Channel Status panel.

Use the WRKMQMCHST command to display the first of a set of panels showing the status of our channels. We can view the status panels in sequence when you select Change-view (F11).

Alternatively, selecting option 8 (Work with Status) from the Work with MQM Channels panel also displays the first status panel.
