  1.                                                                                 
  2. Documentation for QSYSTEM                                                       
  3.                                                                                 
  4. IMPORTANT!!                                                                     
  5.                                                                                 
  6. You must have the IOPL=YES in your CONFIG.SYS for QSYSTEM to function.          
  7. Without this addition, QSYSTEM will not execute.                                
  8.                                                                                 
  9. Most users are concerned about information scrolling off the screen.            
  10. Right now, there are two ways to avoid this.  Hopefully we will add             
  11. internal support soon, but until then, try the following:                       
  12.                                                                                 
  13. Either                                                                          
  14.                                                                                 
  15. 1.  QSYSTEM |  MORE           (this pipes info from QSYSTEM into the            
  16.                                more command)                                    
  17. or                                                                              
  18.                                                                                 
  19. 2.  QSYSTEM -O                (this command will re-direct output to            
  20.                                the file QSYSTEM.DAT)                            
  21.                                                                                 
  22. The first technique is good if you just want to view the info                   
  23. one screen at a time.  The second technique works best for                      
  24. keeping a permanent copy and being able to browse/edit the results.             
  25.                                                                                 
  26.                                                                                 
  27.                                                                                 
  28. Options                                                                         
  29. -------

  31.                                                                                 
  32. -A           list all supported Microchannel adapters                           
  33.              (can be used with the -O option to redirect to file)               
  34.                                                                                 
  35. -D           list more detailed QCONFIG information                             
  36.              includes : adapter configuration for MC,                           
  37.                         model, submodel                                         
  38.                         fixed disk sectors/heads/cylinders.                     
  39.                                                                                 
  40. -O           redirect output to QSYSTEM.OUT                                     
  41.                                                                                 
  42.                                                                                 
  43. -Ofilename   redirect output to file                                            
  44.                                                                                 
  45.              For example:

  47.              QSYSTEM -Ops2data.fil                                              
  48.                                                                                 
  49.              would redirect the output of QCONFIG to ps2data.fil.               
  50.                                                                                 
  51. key=value    define key with value for machine info output                      
  52.              There is a limit of 10 keys at present.                            
  53.                                                                                 
  54.              For example:                                                       
  55.                                                                                 
  56.              QSYSTEM User="Jeff Muir" "Location Site"=Boca                      
  57.                                                                                 
  58.              Output would include:
