DISPLAY
Specifies the OAM display command.
STORGRP(group-name | ALL)
Displays the status of an Object or Object Backup storage group. If group-name is specified, one data line displays the status of the requested storage group. If ALL is selected, a data line will be displayed for each Object Backup storage group, and for each Tape Storage Group defined in the active configuration. If group-name is ALL, you must enclose the ALL parameter in two sets of parentheses, as follows:
D SMS,STORGRP((ALL))
DETAIL
Displays detailed object-group status.
L={a | name | name-a}
Specifies the location where the results of the inquiry are to be displayed, where name is the console name, and a is the display area on the console screen.
To display Object or Object Backup storage group status, enter the following command:
DISPLAY SMS,STORGRP(object-group),DETAIL
This results in F OAM,D,GROUP,groupname command being issued.
Specifying the previous command displays the status of the requested storage group:
CBR1130I OAM storage group status:

and the storage group that is requested is an object storage group 
or an object backup storage group, additional data lines are

… 
c          Indicates whether all of the optical volumes 
           that belong to this storage group are marked 
           full. Valid values are: 
           Y      	All optical volumes are full 
           N      	At least one optical volume has 
                  available space 
           -     	There are no optical volumes in this 
                  	storage group
d          Indicates whether all of the tape volumes that 
           belong to this storage group are marked full. 
           Valid values are: 
           Y     	All tape volumes are full 
           N     	At least one tape volume has 
                  available space 
           -      	There are no tape volumes in this 
                  storage group
n          Indicates whether retention-protection is enabled
           for this object storage group.
           Valid Values are:
           Y     Retention-protection is enabled for this object
                  storage group. Objects stored in this storage group
                  will have a retention-protected attribute associated
                  with them for the life of the object. Retention-
                  protected objects can not be deleted prior to their
                  expiration date, and additionally, their expiration
                  dates can be moved out to a later date, but can never
                  be brought in to an earlier date.
           N     Retention-protection is disabled for this object
                  storage group. Objects stored into this storage group
                  will not have a retention-protected attribute associated
                  with them for the life of the object. Note: even if a
                  given object is not being protected from premature
                  deletion by the retention-protection attribute
                  specifically, it could possibly be protected by another
                  mechanism such as deletion-protection or deletion-hold.
           -     A dash is displayed for object backup storage groups
                  since retention-protection only applies to object
                  storage groups.             
Note: Retention-protection status is determined by the OAM
           Retention Protection parameter in the SMS object storage group
           definition.
o          Indicates whether deletion-protection is enabled
           for this object storage group.
           Valid values are:
           Y     Deletion-protection is enabled for this object
                  storage group. Objects in this storage group can
                  not be deleted prior to their expiration date.
                  However, unlike retention-protection, deletion-
                  protection does not provide any safeguards for
                  preventing an object's expiration date from being
                  brought into an earlier date. Note: retention-
                  protection takes precedence over deletion-protection.
                  For example; If a given object is both retention-
                  protected and deletion-protected, then it defaults
                  to retention-protection for the life of the object,
                  and the expiration date could not be manipulated to
                  an earlier date.
           N     Deletion-protection is disabled for this object
                  storage group. Objects in this storage group are
                  not currently subject to deletion-protection. Note:
                  Although, in this case, the objects are not being
                  protected from premature deletion by the deletion-
                  protection attribute specifically, but they could
                  possibly be protected by another mechanism such as
                  retention-protection or deletion-hold.
           -     A dash is displayed for object backup storage groups
                  since deletion-protection only applies to object
                  storage groups.
u          Indicates whether all of the tape sublevel 1 volumes that 
           belong to this storage group are marked full. 
           Valid values are: 
           Y     	All tape sublevel 1 volumes are full 
           N     	At least one tape sublevel 1 volume has 
                  available space

                  storage group

v         Indicates whether all of the tape sublevel 2 volumes that
