Table 64 Selection Criteria of the ENQINFO Option Window

Criteria	Description
Request	ENQ request. Mandatory. Valid values are: CONFLICT — ENQ conflicts are selected, that is, jobs holding resources for which other jobs are waiting. Default. WAITER — Jobs waiting for resources are selected. OWNER — Jobs that own resources are selected. LOCK — Deadlocked jobs (that is, where one job holds resources for which another job is waiting) are selected. ALL — All ENQ entries are selected.
Scope	Scope of ENQ entries selected. Mandatory. Valid values are: STEP — STEP level SYSTEM — SYSTEM level SYSTEMS — SYSTEMS level ALL — ENQ entries of all three levels above are selected. Default.
Qname	Queue name or mask (major name of the resource), such as, SYSDSN or SYSVSAM. Initially set to blanks. Optional.
Rname	Resource name or mask (minor name of the resource). Initially set to blanks. Optional. The length of Rname is determined as follows: If the name is between two single quotation marks, the length is the number of characters between the quotation marks (including leading and trailing blanks). If the name is not between quotation marks, the actual length is the number of characters, from the first position in the Rname field (including blanks, if any) to the last non-blank character in the field.
Rname cont	Rname can be continued to a total of 88 characters.
Jobname	Job name or mask which issued the ENQ. Initially set to blanks. Optional.
Timing (Y/N)	Determines whether or not the time jobs wait for a resource is calculated. Mandatory. Valid values are: N (No) — Time is not calculated. Default. Y (Yes) — Time is calculated.
	Note: The calculated time is the time a job waits for a resource, from first invocation of the ENQ Information screen until its latest REFRESH.

Change parameters, if desired, and press Enter to close the window. The ENQ Information screen is displayed.
