VMS Help SHOW, DEVICES, /SERVED *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX) |
Displays information on devices served by the mass storage control protocol (MSCP) server on this node. The /SERVED qualifier is required. Format SHOW DEVICES/SERVED
1 - Qualifiers |
1.1 - /ALL
This qualifier displays the information displayed by all of the qualifiers listed below except the /OUTPUT qualifier.
1.2 - /COUNT
Displays the number of transfer operations completed, sorted by the size of the transfers, and the number of MSCP operations that have taken place since the MSCP server was started.
1.3 - /EXACT
Use with the /PAGE=SAVE and /SEARCH qualifiers to specify a search string that must match the search string exactly and must be enclosed with quotation marks (" "). If you specify the /EXACT qualifier without the /SEARCH qualifier, exact search mode is enabled when you set the search string with the Find (E1) key.
1.4 - /HIGHLIGHT
/HIGHLIGHT[=keyword] Use with the /PAGE=SAVE and /SEARCH qualifiers to specify the type of highlighting you want when a search string is found. When a string is found, the entire line is highlighted. You can use the following keywords: BOLD, BLINK, REVERSE, and UNDERLINE. BOLD is the default highlighting.
1.5 - /HOST
Displays the names of the processors that have MSCP served devices on line. The System Generation utility (SYSGEN) command MSCP/HOST determines how many hosts in the OpenVMS Cluster can connect to the MSCP server at one time.
1.6 - /OUTPUT
/OUTPUT=[filespec] Redirects output from your terminal to the specified file. If you do not specify a file, or if you do not use this qualifier, output is sent to SYS$OUTPUT.
1.7 - /PAGE
/PAGE[=keyword] /NOPAGE (default) Controls the display of device information on the screen. You can use the following keywords with the /PAGE qualifier: CLEAR_SCREEN Clears the screen before each page is displayed. SCROLL Displays information one line at a time. SAVE[=n] Enables screen navigation of information, where n is the number of pages to store. The /PAGE=SAVE qualifier allows you to navigate through screens of information. The /PAGE=SAVE qualifier stores up to 5 screens of up to 255 columns of information. When you use the /PAGE=SAVE qualifier, you can use the following keys to navigate through the information: Key Sequence Description Up arrow key, Ctrl/B Scroll up one line. Down arrow key Scroll down one line. Left arrow key Scroll left one column. Right arrow key Scroll right one column. Find (E1) Specify a string to find when the information is displayed. Insert Here (E2) Scroll right one half screen. Remove (E3) Scroll left one half screen. Select (E4) Toggle 80/132 column mode. Prev Screen (E5) Get the previous page of information. Next Screen (E6), Get the next page of information. Return, Enter, Space F10, Ctrl/Z Exit. (Some utilities define these differently.) Help (F15) Display utility help text. Do (F16) Toggle the display to oldest/newest page. Ctrl/W Refresh the display. The /PAGE qualifier is not compatible with the /OUTPUT qualifier.
1.8 - /RESOURCE
Displays information about the resources available to the MSCP server for use in processing I/O requests for the devices it serves. You make these resources available by using the following system parameters: MSCP_BUFFER, MSCP_CREDITS, MSCP_LOAD, and MSCP_SERVE_ ALL. Refer to OpenVMS Cluster Systems or SYSGEN online help for more information.
1.9 - /SEARCH
/SEARCH="string" Use with the /PAGE=SAVE qualifier to specify a string that you want to find in the information being displayed. Quotation marks are required for the /SEARCH qualifier, if you include spaces in the text string. You can also dynamically change the search string by pressing the Find key (E1) while the information is being displayed. Quotation marks are not required for a dynamic search.

The first column in the display shows the names of the devices that are served by the MSCP server. The second column shows the status of the devices. The third column shows the size, in blocks, of the device. The Queue Requests columns show the number of I/O requests currently awaiting processing by that device and the maximum number of I/O requests that have ever been concurrently awaiting processing by that device. The last column in the display shows the number of hosts that have the device on line. 2.$ SHOW DEVICES/SERVED/COUNT MSCP-Served Devices on BIAK 28-MAY-2001 13:49:52.41 . . .

The numbers to the left of the colon (:), separated by a hyphen (-), are the size, in pages, of the requests. The numbers to the right of the colon are the number of requests of that size that have been processed by the MSCP server. The section of the display headed by the label Operations Count shows the number of times the MSCP server has performed the MSCP operations listed. In the example, this MSCP server has performed 176 set-controller-characteristics (SET CTL CHR) operations, and has performed 3630 set-unit-characteristics (SET UNT CHR) operations. 3.$ SHOW DEVICES/SERVED/RESOURCE MSCP-Served Devices on BIAK 28-MAY-2001 13:51:32.01 . . .
