SHOW, CPU, Examples

 *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    1.$ SHOW CPU

      SOWHAT, A VAX 8800
      Multiprocessing is ENABLED. Full checking synchronization image
        loaded.
      Minimum multiprocessing revision levels: CPU = 0 uCODE = 0 UWCS = 0.

      PRIMARY CPU = 01
      Active CPUs:      00 01
      Configured CPUs:  00 01

      The SHOW CPU command in this example produces a configuration
      summary of all configured processors in the VAX 8800 system
      SOWHAT. The primary processor is CPU 01, and all configured
      processors are active.

    2.$ SHOW CPU/BRIEF

      SOWHAT, A VAX 8800
      Multiprocessing is ENABLED. Full checking synchronization image
        loaded.
      Minimum multiprocessing revision levels: CPU = 0 uCODE = 0 UWCS = 0.

      PRIMARY CPU = 01

      CPU 00 is in RUN state
      Current Process: AIREGIN          PID = 4A8001E5

      CPU 01 is in RUN state
      Current Process: ***None***

      The SHOW CPU/BRIEF command in this example produces a
      configuration summary of the VAX 8800 system SOWHAT and also
      indicates that its two processors are in the RUN state. Only
      CPU 00 has a current process.

    3.$ SHOW CPU/FULL

      BIG1, a AlphaServer 4100 5/466 4MB
      Multiprocessing is ENABLED. Full checking synchronization image loaded.

      The SHOW CPU/FULL command in this example produces a
      configuration summary of the AlphaServer 4100 5/466 4MB system,
      BIG1. All are in the RUN state and all have a current process.

      Note that NETACP can only run on CPU 0, because only CPU 0 has
      primary capability. Note also that CPUs 1 and 2 have Fastpath
      ports, PKC0 and PKB0 respectively assigned.

    4.$ SHOW CPU/FULL

      OLEO, A VAX 6000-420
      Multiprocessing is DISABLED. MULTIPROCESSING System parameter = 02
      Minimum multiprocessing revision levels -- CPU: 0 uCODE: 0 UWCS: 21.
      PRIMARY CPU = 02
      *Loaded unmodified device drivers prevent multiprocessor operation.*
          RBDRIVER

      CPU 02 is in RUN state
      Current Process: Koko               PID = 2A6001E3
      Revision levels: CPU: 0 uCODE: 0 UWCS: 0.
      Capabilities of this CPU:
              PRIMARY   VECTOR RUN
      Processes which can only execute on this CPU:
              CONFIGURE         PID = 2A40010B  Reason = PRIMARY Capability
                                                Reason = RUN Capability

      CPU 07 is in INIT state
      Current Process: *** None ***
      Revision levels: CPU: 0 uCODE: 0 UWCS: 0.
      Capabilities of this CPU:
          *** None ***
      Processes which can only execute on this CPU:
          *** None ***

      The SHOW CPU/FULL command in this example produces a
      configuration summary of the VAX 6000-420 system OLEO,
      indicating that only CPU 02, the primary CPU, is active and
      in the RUN state. It also shows that there is a uniprocessing
      driver loaded in the system, thus preventing the system from
      being enabled as a multiprocessor.

    5.$ SET PROCESS /AFFINITY /SET=3 SYSTEM/PERMANENT
      $ SHOW CPU 3/FULL

      BIG1, a AlphaServer 4100 5/466 4MB
      Multiprocessing is ENABLED. Full checking synchronization image loaded.

         PALCODE - Revision Code..: 1.21-01
                   Compatibility..: 1
                   Max Shared CPUs: 4
                   Memory  Space..: Physical = 00000000.00000000  Length = 0
                   Scratch Space..: Physical = 00000000.00000000  Length = 0
       Bindings:
          SYSTEM         PID = 00000438  Reason: Affinitized to this CPU
       Features:
          AUTOSTART is enabled.
      Disabled for use as a Fastpath Preferred CPU.
      Fastpath ports assigned to this CPU:
              PNA0 (user assigned)

      In this example, the SYSTEM process has its affinity set
      permanently to CPU3. The SHOW CPU command indicates this is
      the BINDINGS list.

      The port PNA0 was assigned to CPU 3 by a user when CPU 3 was
      enabled as a Fast Path preferred CPU. Subsequent to that
      operation, CPU 3's bit was cleared in the IO_PREFER_CPUS
      system parameter. This disabled CPU 3 for use as a Fast Path
      preferred CPU. Normally this is a transient condition, as
      changing IO_PREFER_CPUS results in the FASTPATH_SERVER process
      redistributing the Fast Path ports across the set of usable
      CPUs.

      However, if there is no FASTPATH_SERVER process, PNA0 remains
      assigned to this CPU until any of the following actions occur:

      1. The user tries to move the port to another CPU by using the
         SET DEVICE/PREFERRED_CPU command, $QIO, or the $IO_FASTPATH
         system service.

      2. The CPU is stopped.
