SHOW DEVICE

Displays a list of all devices in the system and their associated data structures, or displays the data structures associated with a given device or devices.

Format

SHOW DEVICE [device-name|/ADDRESS=ucb-address|/CDT=cdt_address|
/CHANNELS|/HOMEPAGE|/PDT|/UCB=ucb-address]

Parameter

device-name
Device or devices for which data structures are to be displayed. There are several uses of the device-name parameter.

To Display the Structures For... Action

All devices in the system Do not specify a device-name (for example, SHOW DEVICE).

A single device Specify an entire device-name (for example, SHOW DEVICE VTA20).

All devices of a certain type on a single controller Specify only the device type and controller designation (for example, SHOW DEVICE RTA or SHOW DEVICE RTB).

All devices of a certain type on any controller Specify only the device type (for example, SHOW DEVICE RT).

All devices whose names begin with a certain character or character string Specify the character or character string (for example, SHOW DEVICE D).

All devices on a single node or HSC Specify only the node name or HSC name (for example, SHOW DEVICE GREEN$).

All devices with a certain allocation class Specify the allocation class including leading and trailing $, for example, SHOW DEVICE $63$.

To Display the Structures For...	Action
All devices in the system	Do not specify a device-name (for example, SHOW DEVICE).
A single device	Specify an entire device-name (for example, SHOW DEVICE VTA20).
All devices of a certain type on a single controller	Specify only the device type and controller designation (for example, SHOW DEVICE RTA or SHOW DEVICE RTB).
All devices of a certain type on any controller	Specify only the device type (for example, SHOW DEVICE RT).
All devices whose names begin with a certain character or character string	Specify the character or character string (for example, SHOW DEVICE D).
All devices on a single node or HSC	Specify only the node name or HSC name (for example, SHOW DEVICE GREEN$).
All devices with a certain allocation class	Specify the allocation class including leading and trailing $, for example, SHOW DEVICE $63$.

Qualifiers

/ADDRESS=ucb-address
Indicates the device for which data structure information is to be displayed by the address of its unit control block (UCB). The /ADDRESS qualifier is an alternate method of supplying a device name to the SHOW DEVICE command. If both the device-name parameter and the /ADDRESS qualifier appear in a single SHOW DEVICE command, SDA responds only to the parameter or qualifier that appears first.
/CDT=cdt_address
Identifies the device by the address of its Connector Descriptor Table (CDT). This applies to cluster port devices only.
/CHANNELS
Displays information on active Memory Channel channel blocks. This qualifier is ignored for devices other than memory channel.
/HOMEPAGE
Displays fields from the Memory Channel Home Page. This qualifier is ignored for devices other than memory channel.
/PDT
Displays the Memory Channel Port Descriptor Table. This qualifier is ignored for devices other than memory channel.
/UCB=ucb-address
This is a synonym for /ADDRESS=ucb-address as described above.

Description

The SHOW DEVICE command produces several displays taken from system data structures that describe the devices in the system configuration.
If you use the SHOW DEVICE command to display information for more than one device or one or more controllers, it initially produces the DDB (device data block) list to provide a brief summary of the devices for which it renders information in subsequent screens.
Information in the DDB list appears in five columns, the contents of which are as follows:

Address of the device data block (DDB)
Controller name
Name of the ancillary control process (ACP) associated with the device
Name of the device driver
Address of the driver prologue table (DPT)

The SHOW DEVICE command then produces a display of information pertinent to the device controller. This display includes information gathered from the following structures:

Device data block (DDB)
Primary channel request block (CRB)
Interrupt dispatch block (IDB)
Driver dispatch table (DDT)

If the controller is an HSC controller, SHOW DEVICE also displays information from its system block (SB) and each path block (PB).
Many of these structures contain pointers to other structures and driver routines. Most notably, the DDT display points to various routines located within driver code, such as the start I/O routine, unit initialization routine, and cancel I/O routine.
For each device unit subject to the SHOW DEVICE command, SDA displays information taken from its unit control block, including a list of all I/O request packets (IRPs) in its I/O request queue. For certain mass storage devices, SHOW DEVICE also displays information from the primary class driver data block (CDDB), the volume control block (VCB), and the ACP queue block (AQB). For units that are part of a shadow set, SDA displays a summary of shadow set membership.
As it displays information for a given device unit, SHOW DEVICE defines the following symbols as appropriate:

Symbol Meaning

UCB Address of unit control block

SB Address of system block

ORB Address of object rights block

DDB Address of device data block

DDT Address of driver dispatch table

CRB Address of channel request block

AMB Associated mailbox UCB pointer

IRP Address of I/O request packet

2P_UCB Address of alternate UCB for dual-pathed device

LNM Address of logical name block for mailbox

PDT Address of port descriptor table

CDDB Address of class driver descriptor block for MSCP served device

2P_CDDB Address of alternate CDDB for MSCP served device

RWAITCNT Resource wait count for MSCP served device

VCB Address of volume control block for mounted device

If you are examining a driver-related system failure, you may find it helpful to issue a SHOW STACK command after the appropriate SHOW DEVICE command, to examine the stack for any of these symbols. Note, however, that although the SHOW DEVICE command defines those symbols relevant to the last device unit it has displayed, and redefines symbols relevant to any subsequently displayed device unit, it does not undefine symbols. (For instance, SHOW DEVICE DUA0 defines the symbol PDT, but SHOW DEVICE MBA0 does not undefine it, even though the PDT structure is not associated with a mailbox device.) To maintain the accuracy of such symbols that appear in the stack listing, use the DEFINE command to modify the symbol name. For example:
SDA> DEFINE DUA0_PDT PDT SDA> DEFINE MBA0_UCB UCB
See the descriptions of the READ and FORMAT commands for additional information on defining and examining the contents of device data structures.

Symbol	Meaning
UCB	Address of unit control block
SB	Address of system block
ORB	Address of object rights block
DDB	Address of device data block
DDT	Address of driver dispatch table
CRB	Address of channel request block
AMB	Associated mailbox UCB pointer
IRP	Address of I/O request packet
2P_UCB	Address of alternate UCB for dual-pathed device
LNM	Address of logical name block for mailbox
PDT	Address of port descriptor table
CDDB	Address of class driver descriptor block for MSCP served device
2P_CDDB	Address of alternate CDDB for MSCP served device

This example reproduces the SHOW DEVICE display for a single device unit, OPA0. Whereas this display lists information from the UCB for OPA0, including some addresses of key data structures and a list of pending I/O requests for the unit, it does not display information about the controller or its device driver. To display the latter information, specify the device-name as OPA (for example, SHOW DEVICE OPA).

This excerpt from the output of the SHOW DEVICE DU command illustrates the format of the DDB list. In this case, the DDB list concerns itself with those devices whose device type begins with DU. It displays devices of these types attached to various HSCs (RED$ and BLUES$) and systems in a cluster (BIGTOP$ and TIMEIN$).

SHOW DUMP

Displays formatted information from the header, error log buffers, logical memory blocks (LMBs), memory map, compression data, and a summary of the dump. Also displays hexadecimal information of individual blocks.

Format

SHOW DUMP {/ALL|/BLOCK[=m[{:|;}n]]
|[/COMPRESSION_MAP[=m[:n]] |/ERROR_LOGS|/HEADER
|/LMB[={ALL|n}]|/SUMMARY
|/MEMORY_MAP]}

Parameters

None.

Qualifiers

/ALL
Displays the equivalent to specifying all the /SUMMARY, /HEADER, /ERROR_LOGS, /COMPRESSION_MAP, /LMB=ALL, and /MEMORY_MAP qualifiers.
/BLOCK[=m[{:|;}n]]
Displays a hexadecimal dump of one or more blocks. You can specify ranges by using the following syntax:

no value Displays next block

m Displays single block

m:n Displays a range of blocks from m to n, inclusive

m;n Displays a range of blocks starting at m and continuing for n blocks

/COMPRESSION_MAP[=m[:n]]
In a compressed dump, displays details of the compression data. You can specify levels of detail by using the following syntax:

no value Displays a summary of all compression map blocks

m Displays contents of a single compression map block

m:n Displays details of single compression map entry

/ERROR_LOGS
Displays a summary of the error log buffers.
/HEADER
Displays the formatted contents of the dump header.
/LMB[={ALL|n}]
In a selective dump, displays the formatted contents of logical memory block (LMB) headers and the virtual address (VA) ranges within the LMB. LMBs to be displayed can be expressed by using the following syntax:

no value Displays next LMB

n Displays LMB at block n of the dump

ALL Displays all LMBs

/MEMORY_MAP
In a full dump, displays the contents of the memory map.
/SUMMARY
Displays a summary of the dump. This is the default.

Description

The SHOW DUMP command displays information about the structure of the dump file. It displays the header, the error log buffers, and, if appropriate, the compression map, the logical memory block (LMB) headers and/or the memory map. Use this command when troubleshooting dump analysis problems.

Displays only the data for the specified loadable image. You can use wildcards in execlet-name, in which case SDA displays data for all matching loadable images. The default action is for SDA to display data for all loadable images.

Qualifier

/SUMMARY
Displays a single line of output for all loadable images.

Description

The executive consists of two base images and a number of other executive images.
The base image called SYS$BASE_IMAGE.EXE contains:

Symbol vectors for universal executive routines and data cells
Procedure descriptors for universal executive routines
Globally referenced data cells

The base image called SYS$PUBLIC_VECTORS.EXE contains:

Symbol vectors for system service procedures
Procedure descriptors for system services
Transfer routines for system services

The base images are the pathways to routines and system service procedures in the other executive images.
The SHOW EXECUTIVE command lists the location and size of each executive image. It can enable you to determine whether a given memory address falls within the range occupied by a particular image. (Table 4-1 describes the contents of each executive image.)
SHOW EXECUTIVE also displays the base address and length for each nonzero length image section.
On OpenVMS Alpha the execlets may be sliced. This means each different image section can be relocated in system memory so that they are no longer contiguous. The SHOW EXECUTIVE display contains information on where each image section resides.
The difference between a sliced image and a non-sliced image in the display is that the base, the end, and the length of a sliced image are blank. Only the image section base, end, and length are valid.
There are six different image section types: non-paged read only, non-paged read-write, paged read only, paged read-write, init and fixup. Only the image sections loaded into system memory are displayed.
The MAP command makes it easier to find out in which execlet an address resides. See the description of the MAP command for details.
By default, SDA displays each location within an executive image as an offset from the beginning of the image, for instance, EXCEPTION+00282. Similarly, those symbols that represent system services point to the transfer routine in SYS$PUBLIC_VECTORS.EXE and not to the actual system service procedure. When tracing the course of a system failure through the listings of modules contained within a given executive image, you may find it useful to load into the SDA symbol table all global symbols and global entry points defined within one or all executive images. See the description of the READ command for additional information.
The SHOW EXECUTIVE command usually shows all components of the executive, as illustrated in the following example. In rare circumstances, you may obtain a partial listing. For instance, once it has loaded the EXCEPTION module (in the INIT phase of system initialization), the system can successfully post a bugcheck exception and save a crash dump before loading all the executive images that are normally loaded.
