SYSTEM-INFORMATION( ) Request system information

The SYSTEM-INFORMATION( ) function can be used to request system information and system parameters. One value can be queried per call.

Restrictions

This function is equivalent to the Executive macro SINF at program level. The SINF macro will not be developed further and has been replaced by the NSIINF and NSIOPT macros.
System information and system parameters which were introduced only after this macro was replaced cannot be queried with the SYSTEM-INFORMATION function.
All the system information and system parameters which currently exist can be queried using the SHOW-SYSTEM-INFORMATION and SHOW-SYSTEM-PARAMETERS commands (these commands also support structured output to S variables).

Result type: STRING

SYSTEM-INFORMATION( )
