Showing the State of Configurators
The SHOW command (abbreviated SH) displays the current state of the SYSGEN global
facilities.
SHOW has the following syntax:
SHOW [TYPE = BASEGROUP ]
[ NEWGROUP ]
[ VERSION ]
[ PERMYES ]
[ CONFIGURATOR ]
[ ALL ]
[DEST = OFFLINE ]
BASEGROUP lists the name of the current working configuration’s base group.
NEWGROUP lists the name of the current new configuration group.
VERSION displays the version number of SYSGEN. The version number is also displayed in
the SYSGEN banner.
PERMYES shows whether SYSGEN prompts you for confirmation before performing
potentially serious commands.
CONFIGURATOR lists all modified configurators.
ALL provides a combined listing of the configuration information provided by the
TYPE
parameters defined above.
OFFLINE sends output to SYSGEN’s listing file, SYSGLIST. Using OFFLINE in the SHOW
command line does not immediately generate a printout. The information is sent to
SYSGLIST until you either enter the OCLOSE command or exit SYSGEN. Exiting SYSGEN
or using OCLOSE closes SYSGLIST and prints the file.
Entering SHOW without TYPE parameters is the same as specifying SHOW ALL. Example 4-6
demonstrates using the SHOW ALL command.
Example 4-6. Using the Global Module SHOW ALL
sysgen>SHOW ALL

new configuration group =
SYSGEN version D.01.01 : catalog version D.01.01
