Explanation
The PMQ command analyzes the queue linkage and optionally provides the contents of each entry found for the
<MCP queue head identifier>
This command is used to analyze those MCP queues (nondatacom) that fully reside in save memory space. It is expected that the entry-to-entry linkage is at a fixed location within each queue entry, and that the linkage is from ASD number to ASD number.
It is expected that the <MCP queue head identifier> contains (minimally) the ASD number of the ASD that is at the head of the queue, and may also contain the ASD number of the tail of the queue. Warning and error messages are provided when encountered.
The acceptable values for <MCP queue head identifiers> are as follows:
ACKNOWLEDGEDMSGQUEUE |
ACTIVITYQ |
ANABOLHEAD |
ASYNCMSGQUEUE |
CRITICALUNITFIXQUEUE |
DELAYEDSTATUSQUEUE |
ETERNALHEAD |
EVENTNOTIFYQUEUE |

CONCISE
This option is used to designate that the selected queue is to be analyzed and no entry-by-entry information is to be presented. Only errors and warnings will be presented. This option overrides the setting of CONTENTS, that is, if CONCISE is selected, then, any value provided for CONTENTS will be ignored. The default setting for CONCISE is FALSE (not set).
CONTENTS
This option designates the number of content words to be presented for each queue entry analyzed. Use the EBCDIC or ASCII attributes of the MODE command to analyze the queue entry contents in the specified format.
ALL denotes that the entire contents of each queue entry analyzed are to be presented.
NONE denotes that the contents of each queue entry analyzed will NOT be presented.
When a <number> is provided, then the first <number> words of each analyzed queue entry will be presented.
The default value for CONTENTS is 5.
