SYSGEN SHOW — MicroVMS 4.6

Displays the values of system parameters in the SYSGEN work area, plus
the minimum, maximum, and default values of the parameters, and their
units of measure.  Can also display the I/O driver database.

Format
    SHOW parameter-name
    SHOW /parameter-type
    SHOW /DEVICE=driver-name
    SHOW /HEX parameter-name
    SHOW /HEX/parameter-type

Additional information available:

parameter-nameQualifiers

parameter-name

Name of a system parameter.  Use the SHOW /NAMES command to obtain the
names of all the system parameters.

/ACP

Displays the system parameters that affect the disk and magnetic tape
ancillary control processes (ACP's).

/ADAPTER

Displays a list of adapters and what is connected to each nexus.

/ALL

Displays all the system parameters.

/CLUSTER

Displays the parameters that are associated with a VAX cluster.

/CONFIGURATION

Shows devices by name, number of units, nexus number, adapter type,as
well as CSR and vectors addresses.

                CMEXEC privilege required

 Also accepts /ADAPTER = adapter-spec, /OUTPUT = file-spec, as well as
 /COMMAND_FILE, which formats all the devices as CONNECT commands to
 allow a complete re-configuration of a system's UNIBUS without the use of
 AUTOCONFIGURE.

/DEVICE[=device-driver]

Displays the device data base associated with a particular I/O device
driver; if no device driver is specified, the database for all drivers
is displayed.

                CMEXEC privilege required

/DRIVER[=device-driver]

A short form of the /DEVICE display, only giving the beginning and ending
addresses of the drivers.

/DYNAMIC

Displays the system parameters that can be modified in the active running
system.  See WRITE ACTIVE for how to modify these parameters.

/GEN

Displays the structure-generating parameters and other parameters that
take effect only at boot time.

/HEX

Displays the values in base 16.

/JOB

Displays the job controller parameters.

/LGI

Displays all login parameters.

/MAJOR

Displays the major parameters.  These are the parameters that are most
likely to require adjustment for individual installations.

/NAMES

Displays just the names of all the parameters.

/PQL

Displays the parameters that are used as the minimum and default for
process creation limits and quotas.

/RMS

Displays the parameters that are used as the system-wide defaults for
VAX-11 RMS.

/SCS

Displays the parameters that are associated with the system communications
services.

/SPECIAL

Displays the parameters that generally need never be changed.

/STARTUP

Displays the name of the current site-independent startup
command procedure.

/SYS

Displays the parameters that are associated with overall system operation.

/TTY

Displays the parameters that are associated with the terminal driver.

/UNIBUS

Tests every word in UNIBUS I/O space and returns a list of addresses
that respond and the value that was read. Note that this command is
useful for debugging UNIBUS autoconfigure problems, but it is not
recommended for use on a running system. All unibus adapters are the
default, /ADAPTER=adapter-spec can be specified.

                CMKRNL privilege required
