Library /sys$common/syshlp/sda.hlb SHOW, CRASH *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX) |
SHOW CRASH Displays information about the state of the system at the time of the system failure. This information includes the time of the system failure, the version of the operating system that was running, the CPUs that were active and available in the system, a summary of the BUGCHECK exception messages for all CPUs in the system, and CPU-specific information about each active CPU in the system. The CPU-specific information 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 CRASH performs an implicit SET CPU command. The new "SDA current CPU" is the CPU that induced the system failure. The implicit SET CPU command also changes SDA process context. The new "SDA current process" is the process that was currently executing on the CPU that induced the system failure. If there was no process currently executing on the CPU that induced the system failure, then the "SDA current process" is 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 CRASH shows only the system-wide information when analyzing the running system, because all the CPU-specific information may not be available.
