Description

The DISPLAY STRING command displays the specified expression as an alphanumeric in a monitor picture. It can be used within a monitor file or issued at the RTR prompt when interactively defining a monitor picture for use in a subsequent MONITOR command.

Note that the introduction of the /SEPARATE, /TOTALIZE and /AVERAGE qualifiers has superseded the qualifiers /FACILITY, /LINK, /PARTITION, /NODE and /PROCESS. These superseded qualifiers are no longer described here, however they are still supported.

Parameters

The string you want to display; enclose it in quote marks. Expression can be the name of a single RTR data item.

Qualifiers

/AVERAGE=(keyword,...)

/NOAVERAGE

Specifies that the items being monitored relating to keyword are displayed as an average. This allows a number of items to be averaged in one qualifier.
