Work with Hardware Resources (WRKHDWRSC)
| Where allowed to run: Interactive environments (*INTERACT *IPGM *IREXX *EXEC) Threadsafe: No |
Parameters Examples Error messages |
The Work with Hardware Resources (WRKHDWRSC) command allows the user to manage the hardware on the system. It allows the user to work with:
- Storage
- Processors
- Coupled adapter resource information
- Communications
- Cryptographics
- Local work stations
- Local area network (LAN) adapters
For storage, processors, communications, cryptographic and local work station you can review status and related configuration descriptions, determine which resources can be configured, and determine which devices have configuration descriptions already created.
For LAN network adapters (distributed data interface and token-ring) you can create a resource entry in the system or update the information. LAN adapter information consists of adapter name, adapter address, adapter description, and line type. If an adapter name is not specified when an adapter entry is created, the system assigns a name in the form Dnnnnnnnnn, where nnnnnnnnn is the last nine digits of the adapter address. The Work with LAN Adapters (WRKLANADPT) command allows you to update token ring adapter information for adapters reporting on a specified line.
Restrictions: The Work with LAN Adapters (WRKLANADPT) command must be run before you can run this command using TYPE(*LAN); otherwise there is no information to display.
