NAME
pdmsg - displays the text and description of an HPDPS message at the command line
SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
The pdmsg utility displays the text and description of an HPDPS message at the command line. The
pdmsg utility extracts the text and description from the appropriate message catalogs. If you do not
specify the -d or -t option, pdmsg displays both the text and the message description.
Options
pdmsg uses the following options:
-d Display only the description of a message, which consists of a message number, an explanation of the
message, the system action, and the response.
-t Display only the text of the message, which consists of a message number along with the actual words
of the message itself.
message-number

through 5010-1500 for HPDPS. However, not every number in these ranges has an associated mes-
sage.
