Library /sys$common/syshlp/sda.hlb SHOW, CPU *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX) |
SHOW CPU [cpu_id] Displays information about the state of a CPU at the time of the system failure. The CPU is specified by its hexadecimal CPU ID number (a value between 00 and 1F), or by default. The default CPU is the "SDA current CPU". The information displayed includes the reason for the BUGCHECK exception, the currently executing process, the current IPL, the contents of all the CPU registers, and any spinlocks that the CPU owns. SHOW CPU performs an implicit SET CPU command. The "SDA current CPU" will change to the CPU displayed by the SHOW CPU command. The implicit SET CPU command also changes SDA process context. The "SDA current process" will change to the current process on the new "SDA current CPU". If there is no current process on the new "SDA current CPU", then the "SDA current process" will be undefined, and no process context information will be available until SDA process context is set to a specific process. Type HELP PROCESS_CONTEXT for specific information about the "SDA current process". Type HELP CPU_CONTEXT for specific information about the "SDA current CPU". Note: SHOW CPU is only valid when analyzing a crash dump. It is not a valid command when analyzing the running system, because all the CPU-specific information may not be available.
