Parameters 

STATUS                Displays information about the Network Services.
                      Can be used to check if the Network Services were
                      successfully initiated, or to check on the current
                      status using the following parameters:

                      USERS                 Displays the sessions on the
                                            node that are associated with
                                            the Network Services.

                      SERVICES              Displays information about
                                            the services.

                      SERVERS               Displays information about
                                            the servers.

                      SUMMARY               Displays a summary of the
                                            information about services,
                                            servers, and users.

                      ALL                   Displays all available
                                            information about services,
                                            servers, and users.

                      You can qualify the STATUS function with one
                      parameter or with a list of parameters separated by
                      commas.

                      Default:  ALL

Discussion 

This function displays information on those local sessions that were
created by a DSLINE and REMOTE HELLO and on those remote sessions that
were created by a REMOTE HELLO. The STATUS display does not list
information on either local sessions that are using DSCOPY without a
REMOTE HELLO or temporary remote sessions created by NFT, RFA, or RPM.

The following examples show the information provided by the STATUS
function of the NSCONTROL command.

Example 1 

The example below shows the status of the Network Services.  Local means
the service gives local users access to remote resources; remote means
the service gives remote users access to local resources.  Server
indicates the type of server, NFT or DSSERVER, used for the service.  For
this example, all the services were started as indicated by YES in the
STARTED column of the display.  A NO in that column would indicate that
the service was not started.  You can use the STATUS display to verify
whether each individual service is started or not, and whether it is
available for local or remote use.  This is helpful when using the
optional services list of the NSCONTROL START and STOP functions.

Example 2 

Example 2 shows the status of the servers.  Here the minimum number of
NFT servers is 0 and the maximum is 300 (the defaults).  There are no NFT
servers created.  The minimum number of VTSERVERS is 6 and the maximum is
300.  One, with process ID number (PIN) 50, is active, being used for the
VT service with session #S1.  The other five are not being used but are
in reserve.

     TOTAL NUMBER OF SERVERS:             6

Example 3 

In example 3, assume that a user has entered the following commands on
NODE1:

     :HELLO MANAGER.SYS
     :DSLINE NODE2
     :REMOTE HELLO MGR.TELESUP

The result on NODE1 is:

     :NSCONTROL STATUS=USERS

     JOBNUM   SESSION  TYPE        USER.ACCOUNT
              ID         SERVICES    NODENAME

     #S1      #060507  LOCAL       MANAGER.SYS
              #031237    VT          NODE2.DOMAIN.ORGANIZATION
     TOTAL NUMBER OF LOCAL NS USERS:     1
     TOTAL NUMBER OF REMOTE NS USERS:    0
     TOTAL NUMBER OF NS USERS:           1

and on NODE2:

     :NSCONTROL STATUS=USERS

     JOBNUM   SESSION  TYPE        USER.ACCOUNT
              ID         SERVICES    NODENAME

     #S3      #031237  REMOTE      MGR.TELESUP
              #060507    ORIGIN      NODE1.DOMAIN.ORGANIZATION

     TOTAL NUMBER OF LOCAL NS USERS:     0
     TOTAL NUMBER OF REMOTE NS USERS:    1
     TOTAL NUMBER OF NS USERS:           1

The display on NODE2 shows the remote session for MGR.TELESUP from the
REMOTE HELLO on NODE1.  As illustrated in example 3, the session IDs can
be used to match up the local and remote sessions.  The local session on
NODE1, with ID #060500, is the origin of the remote session on NODE2,
with ID #031237.

Example 4 

In the example below, the Network Services have not been started (no
NSCONTROL START has not been issued).  The system response to the
NSCONTROL STATUS=USERS,SERVICES command shows that there are no Network
Services users and no Network Services currently active.

     :NSCONTROL STATUS=USERS,SERVICES

     NO CURRENT NETWORK SERVICE USERS

     NO NETWORK SERVICES ARE CURRENTLY ACTIVE

Example 5 

Example 5 shows the brief summary of users, services, and servers
information.  This is an abbreviated display of STATUS=ALL.

     :NSCONTROL STATUS=SUMMARY

     TOTAL NUMBER OF LOCAL NS USERS:         1
     TOTAL NUMBER OF REMOTE NS USERS:        0
