Display Distribution Services (DSPDSTSRV)

The Display Distribution Services (DSPDSTSRV) command shows or prints the distribution queues table, routing table, or secondary system name table defined for the local system. A detailed description of the Systems Network Architecture service (SNADS) network is in the SNA Distribution Services book, SC41-5410.

Note: This command does not allow changes to the SNADS network. Changes to the network can be made using the Configure Distribution Services (CFGDSTSRV) command.

Restriction: Messages that report errors about system names or distribution queues may show or print different characters than the user entered because of internal system transformations.

The internal value for a system name or distribution queue may differ from the characters shown by the DSPDSTSRV command, depending on the language used for the work station.
