Page segment (PAGSEG)

Specifies the qualified name of the page segment to work with. A specific page segment or a generic page segment can be specified. Either type can be optionally qualified by a library name.

This is a required parameter.

Qualifier 1: Page segment

*ALL: All page segments are worked with.
generic-name: Specify the generic name of the page segments to work with. A generic name can be specified as a character string that contains one or more characters followed by an asterisk (*). If a generic name is specified, then all page segments that have names with the same prefix as the generic page segment name are worked with.
name: Specify the name of the page segment to work with.

Qualifier 2: Library

*LIBL: All libraries in the library list for the current thread are searched. All objects in these libraries with the specified object name are shown.

*CURLIB: The current library for the job is searched for page segments to work with. If no library specified as the current library for the job, QGPL is used.

*USRLIBL: If a current library entry exists in the library list for the current thread, the current library and the libraries in the user portion of the library list are searched. If there is no current library entry, only the libraries in the user portion of the library list are searched.

*ALLUSR

All user libraries are searched. All libraries with names that do not begin with the letter Q are searched except for the following:

#CGULIB     #DSULIB     #SEULIB
#COBLIB     #RPGLIB
#DFULIB     #SDALIB

Although the following Qxxx libraries are provided by IBM, they typically contain user data that changes frequently. Therefore, these libraries are considered user libraries and are also searched:

QDSNX       QRCLxxxxx   QUSRIJS     QUSRVxRxMx
QGPL        QSRVAGT     QUSRINFSKR
QGPL38      QSYS2       QUSRNOTES
QMGTC       QSYS2xxxxx  QUSROND
QMGTC2      QS36F       QUSRPOSGS
QMPGDATA    QUSER38     QUSRPOSSA
QMQMDATA    QUSRADSM    QUSRPYMSVR
QMQMPROC    QUSRBRM     QUSRRDARS
QPFRDATA    QUSRDIRCL   QUSRSYS
QRCL        QUSRDIRDB   QUSRVI

'xxxxx' is the number of a primary auxiliary storage pool (ASP).
A different library name, in the format QUSRVxRxMx, can be created by the user for each previous release supported by IBM to contain any user commands to be compiled in a CL program for the previous release. For the QUSRVxRxMx user library, VxRxMx is the version, release, and modification level of a previous release that IBM continues to support.

*ALL: All libraries in the system, including QSYS, are searched.

name: Specify a library name. Only the library named in this parameter is searched for page segments to work with.

Examples

Example 1: Working with a Specific Page Segment

WRKPAGSEG   PAGSEG(MYLIB/PAGSEG1)

This commad searches library MYLIB for a page segment with the name PAGSEG1. If PAGSEG1 is found, the information for that page segment is shown. If a PAGSEG1 does not exist in MYLIB, a message is shown on the Work with Page Segments display indicating that an object to match the specified name was not found.

Example 2: Searching the Library List for a Page Segment

WRKPAGSEG   PAGSEG(*LIBL/PAGSEG1)

This command searches the library list for the page segment named PAGSEG1. Only the first occurrence of PAGSEG1 is listed.
