IPCS

Sample REXX Code

ALCINFO

This EXEC displays allocation information. It checks for contention for resources. It also displays jobs on internal allocation queues.

DYNINFO

This EXEC takes a single parameter, the R1 value used as input to SVC 99, the dynalloc SVC. It extracts and formats the text unit keys and values. It does not attempt to interpret the dynamic allocation text units. "MVS Authorized Assembler Services Guide" has more information about SVC 99.

VSMINFO

This EXEC reports on memory usage by the current address space. It reports the requested values, the region limit values, the maximum available and the high water marks at the time of the dump.

DUMPNTTP

This EXEC reports on name-token pairs. See FINDNTTP on the REXX samples page for an example of doing this for the current address space.

IPCSTRAP

This EXEC is an example of trapping command output under IPCS. This will not work when IPCS is running under ISPF.
