This message is part of several different message groups that VTAM® issues in response to DISPLAY ID commands or DISPLAY commands that display the status of a particular category of resources in a domain.

nodename is the name of the resource or ID type that is displayed.

See Node and ID types in VTAM messages for a description of nodetype.

See the z/OS Communications Server: IP and SNA Codes for a description of status.

device_address is the hexadecimal channel address of the node. It provides attachment for the communication controller normally attached by the physical unit type 4 nodename. VTAM issues *NA if device_address is not available.

puname is the name of the PU that is the physical resource for nodename and is specified on the PHYSRSC operand of the GROUP definition statement. puname is issued only with TYPE=LINE or TYPE=LINE GROUP.

If the physical unit, defined in the NCP definition, whose name is specified by the PHYSRSC keyword is a switched PU that is not currently connected, then highernode is the physical line.
