Use this function to display all known information for the selected devices, including current status, and to receive
suggestions on further actions which you might take at this point. The data displayed for each device includes the
following:
A description of the device
The hardware path, specifying the address of the hardware components leading to the device
The device type (e.g, disk, tape)
The device qualifier (e.g., SCSI, CS80)
The most recent tool executed/executing on the device
Exit status of the most recent tool run
The current status of the device
Recommended user action
The "Current Device Status" may be run at any time, even if the device is currently busy, as it does not access the
device to obtain its information.
When a utility is executing, the current status field also shows the process number for the utility.
The recommended action field is used to suggest what action you might want to take next. For example, in the event
of a tool failure, you might see a message suggesting that you examine the Activity Log... and the Failure Log....
