SYSMANHELP.HLB  —  IO  SHOW

1  –  BUS

    This command is for use on Alpha and Integrity servers only. It
    lists all the buses, node numbers, bus names, TR numbers, and
    base CSR addresses on the system. This display exists primarily
    for internal engineering support.

    On VAX systems, use the SYSGEN command SHOW/BUS.

1.1  –  Description

    The SYSMAN IO SHOW BUS command lists all the buses, node numbers,
    bus names, TR numbers, and base CSR addresses. This display
    exists primarily for internal engineering support. You must have
    CMKRNL privilege to use SYSMAN IO SHOW BUS.

      This example is from a DEC 7000 Model 600. Displays vary among
      different Alpha and Integrity servers.

      The indentation levels are deliberate in this display. They
      indicate the hierarchy of the adapter control blocks in the
      system. The column titles in the display have the following
      meanings:

      Column Titles   Meaning

      Bus             Identity of the bus
      Node            Index into the associated bus array; the bus
                      slot
      TR#             Nexus number of the adapter to which the
                      specified device is connected
      Name            Name of the device
      Base CSR        Base CSR address of the device

    On Alpha and Integrity servers, you can use the SDA command
    CLUE CONFIG to display additional information including hardware
    adapters and devices. This command is documented in the OpenVMS
    Alpha System Dump Analyzer Utility Manual.

    For more information about loading and configuing device drivers,
    see Writing OpenVMS Alpha Device Drivers in C.

2  –  DEVICE

    This command is for use on Alpha and Integrity servers only.
    It displays information about device drivers loaded into the
    system, the devices connected to them, and their I/O databases.
    All addresses are in hexadecimal and are virtual.

    On VAX systems, use the SYSGEN command SHOW/DEVICE.

    Format

      IO SHOW DEVICE

2.1  –  Description

    The SYSMAN IO SHOW DEVICE command displays information about the
    device drivers loaded into the system, the devices connected to
    them, and their I/O databases.

    The SYSMAN IO SHOW DEVICE command specifies that the following
    information be displayed about the specified device driver:

    Driver   Name of the driver
    Dev      Name of each device connected to the driver
    DDB      Address of the device's device data block
    CRB      Address of the device's channel request block
    IDB      Address of the device's interrupt dispatch block
    Unit     Number of each unit on the device
    UCB      Address of each unit's unit control block

    All addresses are in hexadecimal and are virtual.

    For additional information about SYSMAN, see A Comparison of
    System Management on OpenVMS AXP and OpenVMS VAX (archived) but
    available on the OpenVMS Documentation CD-ROM) and the VSI OpenVMS
    System Manager's Manual.

    autoconfiguration of devices.

    Format

      IO SHOW EXCLUDE

3.1  –  Description

    The SYSMAN IO SHOW EXCLUDE command displays the permanent
    exclusion list on the console. This list is used in the
    autoconfiguration of devices.

3.2  –  Example

  SYSMAN> IO SHOW EXCLUDE
  %SYSMAN-I-
 IOEXCLUDE, the current permanent exclusion list is: DKC500,DKD*

      autoconfiguration of devices; the current list contains DKC500
      and all DKD devices.

4  –  PREFIX

    This command is for use on Alpha and Integrity servers only. It
    displays the current prefix list used in the manufacture of ICBM
    names.

    Format

      IO SHOW PREFIX

4.1  –  Description

    The SYSMAN IO SHOW PREFIX command displays the current prefix
    list on the console. This list is used by the SYSMAN IO
