Examples

   1.$ SYSID = F$GETSYI("SID")
     $ SHOW SYMBOL SYSID
       SYSID = 19923201  Hex = 01300101 Octal = 000401

     This example shows how to use the F$GETSYI function to return
     the information in the system identification register. Use
     quotation marks (" ")  around the argument SID because it is a
     string literal. The value returned by F$GETSYI is assigned to
     the symbol SYSID. Because a node is not specified, information
     about your current node is returned.

   2.$ MEM = F$GETSYI("CLUSTER_MEMBER", "LONDON")
     $ SHOW SYMBOL MEM
       MEM = "TRUE"

     This example uses the F$GETSYI function to determine whether
     the node LONDON is a member of the local cluster. The return
     value TRUE indicates that the remote node LONDON is a member of
     the cluster.

   3.$ LIM = F$GETSYI("IJOBLIM")
     $ SHOW SYMBOL LIM
       LIM = 16   Hex = 00000010  Octal = 00000000020

     This example uses the system parameter IJOBLIM as an argument
     for the F$GETSYI function. This argument returns the batch job
     limit for the current system.

   4.$  DECNETVERS = F$GETSYI("DECNET_VERSION")
     $ SHOW SYMBOL DECNETVERS
       DECNETVERS = "00050D01"
     $ DECNETPHASE = F$INTEGER(F$EXTRACT(2,2,DECNETVERS))
     $ SHOW SYMBOL DECNETPHASE
       DECNETPHASE = 5   Hex = 00000005  Octal = 00000000005

     This example shows how to use F$GETSYI to return the DECnet
     version, using the DECNET_VERSION item.

   5.$ RADCPU = F$GETSYI("RAD_CPUS")
     $ SHOW SYMBOL RADCPU
       0,0,0,1,1,4,1,5

     This example uses the system parameter RAD_CPUS as an argument
     for the F$GETSYI function. This argument returns a list of
     RAD,CPU pairs, separated by commas. In this example, the first
     RAD,CPU pair is 0,0, the second pair is 0,1, and so forth.

     RAD is supported on AlphaServer GS series systems and starting
     from OpenVMS Version 8.4, support is extended to NUMA capable
     Integrity servers.

   6.$ HP_ID = F$GETSYI("HP_ID")
     $ SHOW SYMBOL HP_ID
       HP_ID = 1   Hex = 00000001  Octal = 00000000001

     This example uses the system parameter HP_ID as an argument
     for the F$GETSYI function. This argument returns the hard
     partition ID. It is supported only on Integrity servers that
     support hard partitioning.

   7.$ HP_NAME = F$GETSYI("HP_NAME")
     $ SHOW SYMBOL HP_NAME
       HP_NAME = "part1"

     This example uses the system parameter HP_NAME as an argument
     for the F$GETSYI function. This argument returns the hard
     partition name as a string. It is supported only on Integrity
     servers that support hard partitioning.
