Inquire Archive on z/OS

The Inquire Archive (MQCMD_INQUIRE_ARCHIVE) command returns archive system parameters and information.

Optional parameters

CommandScope (MQCFST)

Command scope (parameter identifier: MQCACF_COMMAND_SCOPE). Specifies how the command is executed when the queue manager is a member of a queue sharing group. We can specify one of the following:

• blank (or omit the parameter altogether). The command is executed on the queue manager on which it was entered.
• a queue manager name. The command is executed on the queue manager you specify, providing it is active within the queue sharing group. If you specify a queue manager name other than the queue manager on which it was entered, we must be using a queue sharing group environment, and the command server must be enabled.
• an asterisk (*). The command is executed on the local queue manager and is also passed to every active queue manager in the queue sharing group.

The maximum length is MQ_QSG_NAME_LENGTH.
