AS/400 HELP    

                                    "RESOURCES" 

               DISPLAY  HARDWARE STATUS

RESOURCES  displays a list of  the hardware devices in your AS/400 and highlights any device that’s currently  reporting a problem.  (STS shows PRB)  STS of ??  means device was not detected by this  API but and does not necessarily mean there is anything wrong.

RESOURCES  uses API  QGYRHRL  via  the procedure QfyRtvHdwRscList in service program QGYRHR  

RESOURCES  was developed  in V5R1 and compiled down to  V4R2  (see NOTE below)

AS/400 INSTRUCTIONS:

ADDLIBLE RESOURCES

ROURCESS

NOTE:             RESOURCES  interprets the  DEVICE TYPE   field with entries provided by IBM  in the API  documentation (QGYRHRL)   “* Unknown *”  results when there is no match in the subfield field KIND3.  The AS/400 may not return values as documented by IBM .  It is simple to modify the program to add another  ifeq    statement once you know the hexadecimal value. Run in debug mode and enter  EVAL KIND3:x    at a  break point when it’s in the DO loop  of loading the subfile     

                        RESOURCES was tested on a model 170 at 5.1  and a model 400 at 4.5.    I assume it will work below  4.5
