Viewing subsystem attributes

 

Subsystems have attributes. These attributes give information about the current status of the subsystem, or about values identified in the subsystem description.

When you use iSeries™ Navigator, the following attributes can be viewed for an active subsystem:

• Subsystem: The name of the subsystem, as well as the library that contains the subsystem description.

• Description: The description of the subsystem.

• Status: The current status of the subsystem. The help contains details on the possible statuses.

• Active jobs: The number of jobs currently active, either running or waiting to run, in the subsystem. This number does not include the subsystem job.

• Maximum active jobs: The maximum number of jobs that can be active, either running or waiting to run, in the subsystem.

• Subsystem job: The name of the subsystem job, including user and number
