SHOW CONNECTIONS

Displays information about all active connections between systems communications services (SCS) processes or a single connection. This command displays information that is in the connection descriptor table (CDT).

Format

SHOW CONNECTIONS {/ADDR or /ADDRESS=cdt-address| /NODE=name| /SYSAP=name}


Parameters

None.

Qualifiers

/ADDR or /ADDRESS=cdt-address

Displays information contained in the connection descriptor table (CDT) for a specific connection.9

/NODE=name

Displays information contained in the connection descriptor table (CDT) for a specific node.

/SYSAP=name

Displays information contained in the connection descriptor table (CDT) for a specific system application (SYSAP).

Description

The SHOW CONNECTIONS command provides a series of displays.

The CDT summary page lists information regarding each connection on the local system, including the following:

The CDT summary page concludes with a count of CDTs that are free and available to the system.

SHOW CONNECTIONS next displays a page of detailed information for each active CDT listed previously.

This example shows the use of the /SYSAP qualifier to show which nodes in the cluster are connected to SCA$TRANSPORT.

Note

9 You can find the cdt-address for any active connection on the system in the CDT summary page display of the SHOW CONNECTIONS command. In addition, CDT addresses are stored in many individual data structures related to SCS connections. These data structures include class driver request packets (CDRPs) and unit control blocks (UCBs) for class drivers that use SCS and cluster system blocks (CSBs) for the connection manager.

SHOW CPU

Displays information about the state of a processor at the time of the system failure.

Format

SHOW CPU [cpu-id]


Parameter

cpu-id

Numeric value from 00 to 1F16 indicating the identity of the processor for which context information is to be displayed. If you specify a value outside this range, or you specify the cpu-id of a processor that was not active at the time of the system failure, SDA displays the following message:


%SDA-E-CPUNOTVLD, CPU not booted or CPU number out of range 

If you use the cpu-id parameter, the SHOW CPU command performs an implicit SET CPU command, making the processor indicated by cpu-id the current CPU for subsequent SDA commands. (See the description of the SET CPU command and Section 4 for information about how this can affect the CPU context---and process context---in which SDA commands execute.)


Qualifiers

None.

Description

The SHOW CPU command displays crash information about the processor specified by cpu-id or, by default, the SDA current CPU, as defined in Section 4. You cannot use the SHOW CPU command when examining the running system with SDA.

The SHOW CPU command produces several displays. First, there is a brief description of the crash and its environment that includes the following:

Next, the general registers display shows the contents of the processor's general-purpose registers (R0 through R11) and the AP, FP, SP, PC, and PSL at the time of the crash.

The processor registers display consists of the following three parts:

The first section includes registers that maintain the virtual address space, system space, or other system functions of the current process. The following registers are among those displayed:
Register Description
P0BR Program region (P0 space) base register
P0LR Program region length register
P1BR Control region (P1 space) base register
P1LR Control region length register
SBR System region (S0 space) base register
SLR System region length register
PCBB Process control block base register
SCBB System control block base register
ASTLVL Asynchronous system trap level
SISR Software interrupt summary register
ICCS Internal clock control and status register
SID System identification register

The second section of the processor registers display shows those registers that are specific to the type of processor being examined. (The SHOW CRASH command displays the processor type.) The contents of the register display vary according to the type of processor involved in the crash and are used primarily in hardware diagnostics.

The final section of the display includes the five stack pointers: the interrupt stack pointer (ISP) and the four pointers of the kernel, executive, supervisor, and user stacks (KSP, ESP, SSP, and USP, respectively). Certain processors, such as the VAX 8800 and VAX 8600 processors, also display the contents of the silos of their memory interconnects in this section.

The SHOW CPU command concludes with a listing of the spin locks, if any, owned by the processor at the time of the crash, reproducing some of the information given by the SHOW SPINLOCKS command. The spin lock display includes the following information:

This SDA session illustrates the output of the SHOW CPU command in the analysis of a crash dump from a VAX 8800 multiprocessing system with two active processors. The first SHOW CPU command displays the crash information particular to CPU 00, which initially posted an INVEXCEPTN bugcheck from within process NETACP and then requested CPU 01 to take a bugcheck (CPUEXIT) as well. That the crash occurred at IPL 8 signifies, perhaps, that a driver fork process is involved.

The second instance of the SHOW CPU command (SHOW CPU 01) corroborates that CPU 01 was requested to crash by CPU 00.

Significantly, the second SHOW CPU command changes both the SDA current CPU context and current process context. The two EXAMINE R5 commands are executed under different CPU contexts; the values they produce differ. In the CPU context of CPU 00, the current process context is that of process NETACP. There is no current process on CPU 01; thus, SDA process context is initially undefined when its CPU context is changed to that of CPU 01.

SHOW CRASH

In the analysis of a system failure, displays information about the state of the system at the time of the failure. In the analysis of a running system, provides information identifying the system.

Format

SHOW CRASH


Parameters

None.

Qualifiers

None.

Description

The SHOW CRASH command has two different manifestations, depending upon whether you use it while analyzing a running system or a system failure.

In either case, if the SDA current CPU context is not that of the processor that signaled the bugcheck, the SHOW CRASH command performs an implicit SET CPU command to make that processor the SDA current CPU. (See the description of the SET CPU command and Section 4 for a discussion of how this can affect the CPU context---and process context---in which SDA commands execute.)

When used during the analysis of a running system, the SHOW CRASH command produces a display that describes the system and the version of OpenVMS that it is running. The system crash information display contains the following information:

When used during the analysis of a system failure, the SHOW CRASH command produces several displays that identify the system and describe its state at the time of the failure.

The system crash information display in this context provides the following information:

Subsequent screens of the SHOW CRASH command display information about the state of each active processor on the system at the time of the system failure. The information in these screens is identical to that produced by the SHOW CPU command, including the general-purpose registers, processor-specific registers, stack pointers, and records of spin lock ownership. The first such screen presents information about the processor that caused the crash; others follow according to the numerical order of their CPU IDs.

When issued from within the analysis of a running system, the SHOW CRASH command displays the time the ANALYZE/SYSTEM command was issued as the "Time of system crash." The display indicates that the OpenVMS VAX system in use is a VAX 8800 multiprocessing system, the left CPU of which is the primary CPU. The bit mask indicates that there are two processors available and both are running.

Note that no SDA current process is defined at this time.
