how to identify "local" nodes in "q n"

e need to list only "normal" nodes on a server that also acts as a
replication target.
"Q Node" shows all nodes, i could not find a parameter to filter for
local nodes only.
How can we list local nodes only, for example to check if these nodes
are all defined in some schedulers etc.
Is there exist a command or parameter or must we have to use a SELECT ?

q n is not having an option for that.

    Thank you for your request. We have been making some improvements in this area (see TSM Operations Center 7.1), and we are looking at delivering some more changes in our upcoming releases. We cannot make a firm commitment as to when this could be delivered, but we will continue to asses its priority as we plan our upcoming releases.
