Use the VTAM LINES panel to check the status of all communication lines known to this VTAM. Like the display shown for the D NET,LINES command, the scrollable list shows the line name, the owning major node, and status of the lines.

Use primary commands to scan the list for a specific line or display lines in a particular STATUS. Use line commands to change the status of a LINENAME, just as if you were at the main console.

The STATUS column lists the VTAM status abbreviations. See "Resource Status Codes" in the IBM documentation VTAM Messages and Codes for definitions of these status abbreviations.
