The following is an example of how to determine the status of an individual input device
file:
SHOWIN #I80

If you do not know the device file identification number (DFID) of the device file whose
status you want to determine, you may request the status display by entering either the
logical device number or the device class name of the device on which the file originated:
SHOWIN DEV=43
DEV/CL DFID JOBNUM FNAME STATE FRM SPACE RANK PRI #C
43 #I43 #S37 $STDIN OPENED
You may also request displays of device file information using various combinations of
qualifications (devices, jobs/sessions, and states). For example, to display information
about all OPENED input device files used by all sessions (but not jobs) in the system,
enter:
SHOWIN JOB=@S;OPENED
DEV/CL DFID JOBNUM FNAME STATE FRM SPACE RANK PRI #C
