3 regularly used IMS DC commands that i have come accross (and used)are

1) /FORMAT :- USe this command whenever you want to use the Message Format Service(MFS). Syntax :- /FORMAT <modname>

2) /TEST :- Whenver you want to test your MFS blocks, put them in the PDS named IMS*.TFORMAT and give a /TEST MFS at the terminal . then give /FOR followed by the MOD name

3) regular transactions. These transaction codes are associated with a program name. Use them to invoke programs.

1) /TEST MFS is used in general to refresh the Screen format.

(i.e If you modify any screen layout and want to display the screen with your new design changes use this command first and the give a
/FOR <Modname>.

2)DIS STATUS TRAN gives the status of the Trasaction associated with the PSB.

3) /START TRAN tranname will start the transaction if it stops during any abend.

4)/START PROGRAM programname will start program.

3 and 4 need to repeat until the region is stable.

/DIS TRAN tranname itself diplay the PSB-NAME.
In General we use the same name for the PSB and TRAN
/DIS TRAN pgmname is Invalid according to my knowledge
/DIS PROG pgmname will displays the Transaction associated with this program and type of PSB=TP/DB.
