QF (Queue Factors)

The QF (Queue Factors) command displays the current values of all attributes of the designated job queue.

Refer to the MQ (Make or Modify Queue) command for a detailed explanation of the relevant queue attributes.

In any form of the QF command, the active count for a queue can be greater than the mix limit of that queue if either of the following conditions is true:

  • A job or task from that queue has been forced from the job queue with a FS (Force Schedule) command.

  • A job from the queue processes a dependent task.

Syntax

Explanation

QF

Displays the value of all attributes of each job queue. Any disk families assigned to the queue are displayed.

QF <queue number>

Displays the value of all attributes of the job queue identified by the queue number.

The active mix count is displayed if it is not equal to zero.

If the queue number has not been previously defined, the following message is issued: 

SPECIFIED QUEUE(S) NOT DEFINED

If the system has no previously defined queues, the following message is issued: 

SYSTEM HAS NO QUEUES DEFINED

QF <queue number list>
