The Retrieve Product  Description command retrieves a description  of a
licensed  product such as  5761SS1.  The  description is returned  in a
25 byte variable.

A typical series of commands would be:

             DCL           &DESCRP *CHAR LEN(25)
              .
             RTVPRDDSC     PRODUCT(xxx) DESCRP(&DESCRP)

If  the  PRODUCT value  is not  known,  the command  completes normally
with a message:

            'Failure on xxxxxxx'
