We've had enough bad weather around the world that raining on yet another 
parade seems cruel and unusual. Nonetheless, I have to opine that this quest is 
hopeless. So far I've not seen any product named. Even as mature and 
well-defined a product as JES does not provide its own parameter sanity 
checker. And when you've knocked yourself out for JES, you can start working on 
the product. From scratch. Hopeless.

Subject: (External):Re: how to compare active parameter with the parameter in 
member

Jason,

We do that in our product (not selling you anything), and it is not easy.
some of the parameters are not displayed in the command and need deeper 
investigation. In general, you do not compare syntax, but tokens. for example, 
you need to parse the the output from the display and compare same value in the 
parmlib. many parameters are represented in strings of characters (see TCP 
NETSTAT output) for example.

Ivf you narrow your concern to a specific parmlib, we can give you some advice 
and even some code snips. A good starting point is Lionel Dyke's IPLINFO. Great 
coder and great code.
