Analysis type (ANZTYPE)

Specifies the type of analysis. The default value, *MENU allows you to do local or remote analysis on an iSeries system or to analyze problems on another system which is not an iSeries system. If you want to analyze problems on a local or remote iSeries system, you can bypass the initial menu by specifying *LOCAL or *REMOTE.

You cannot do remote analysis if IBM System Manager for i5/OS is not installed.

This is a required parameter.

The possible values are:

*MENU

The Select Type of System menu is shown. You may choose to analyze problems on:

  • This iSeries system

  • Another iSeries system that is enrolled as a service requester

  • Another iSeries system that is not enrolled as a service requester

  • Another system that is not an iSeries system

*LOCAL

Local analysis is selected. Problem analysis is done on this iSeries system.

*REMOTE

Remote analysis is selected. Problem analysis is done for another iSeries system that is enrolled as a service requester.

Examples

Example 1: Displaying the Menu 

 ANZPRB

This command shows the Analyze Problem menu.

Example 2: Starting Remote Analysis 

 ANZPRB   ANZTYPE(*REMOTE)

This command shows the display which prompts for the remaining values of the command. After you specify the appropriate values, remote analysis begins.

Example 3: Accessing Remote System with User ID and Password 

 ANZPRB   ANZTYPE(*REMOTE)  RCPNAME(RCH38377)  USERID(JON)
         PASSWORD(MY1STPWD)

This command shows the display which prompts for the remaining values of the command. After you specify the appropriate values beyond the ones specified on the command example, remote analysis begins.

Example 4: Remote Analysis has Security Level of 10 

 ANZPRB   ANZTYPE(*REMOTE)  RCPNAME(RCH38377)  USERID(JON)

This command is slightly different than the preceding example. The same display prompt appears; however, if PASSWORD is not specified, the system assumes that the remote system has a security level of 10, that is, it does not use passwords. After you specify the appropriate values beyond the ones specified on the command example, remote analysis begins.

Example 5: Displaying the Menu 

 ANZPRB   ANZTYPE(*MENU)

This command shows a menu prompting you for the type of analysis to be done. The remaining parameters do not appear on the display.

Example 6: Starting Local Analysis 

 ANZPRB   ANZTYPE(*LOCAL)

This command begins analysis on the local device. The remaining parameters do not appear on the display.
