The Check  Independent ASP Status  command command  checks that a  list
or all  Independent ASPs are  in an 'available'  status.  An  omit list
of  Independent ASPs may be specified.   An escape message (TAA9892) is
issued if all  requested IASPs are  not online.   A diagnostic is  sent
for each IASP that is not available.

A typical command is:

            CHKIASP

A  MONMSG of TAA9892  may be  used in  a CL program  to monitor  if the
requested IASPs are not available.

If no IASPs exist, the command completes normally.

CHKIASP escape messages you can monitor for
-------------------------------------------

      TAA9892    Not all requested IASPs are available.
      TAA9893    No requested IASPs exist.

Escape messages from based on functions will be re-sent.

CHKIASP Command parameters                            *CMD
--------------------------

   IASPLST       A  list of up  to 300 Independent ASPs  that should be
                 included in the check to  determine if they are in  an
                 'available' status.   The default is *ALL  meaning all
                 IASPs are checked.

   OMITASP       A list  of up to 300 Independent  ASPs that should not
                 be included  in  the  check.   The  default  is  *NONE
                 meaning  all  IASPs  in  the   IASPLST  parameter  are
                 checked.
