Arguments

status-code

   Specifies the status code for which you are requesting error
   message text. You must specify the status code as an integer
   expression.


message-component-list

   Specifies the system message component for which information is
   to be returned. If this parameter is null or unspecified, then
   all system message components are returned.

   The following table describes the valid system message component
   keywords:

   Component
   Keyword        Information Returned

   FACILITY       Facility name
   SEVERITY       Severity level indicator
   IDENT          Abbreviation of message text
   TEXT           Explanation of message

   Note that when the FACILITY, SEVERITY, and IDENT code keywords
   are specified (individually or in combination), the resulting
   message code is prefaced with the percent (%)  character. The
   individual parts of the message code are separated by hyphens
   when multiple code keywords are specified.

   When only the TEXT keyword is specified, the resulting text
   is not prefaced with any character. When the TEXT keyword is
   specified with the FACILITY, SEVERITY, or IDENT code keyword,
   the message code is separated from the text by a combination of a
   comma and a blank (,  ).
