System Dump Analyzer
SHOW HEADER
SHOW HEADER
Displays the header of the dump file.
Format
SHOW HEADER
Parameters
None.
Qualifiers
None.
Description
The SHOW HEADER command produces a 10-column display, each line of which
displays both the hexadecimal and ASCII representation of the contents of
the dump file header in 32-byte intervals. Thus, the first eight columns, when
read right to left, represent the hexadecimal contents of 32 bytes of the header;
similarly, the ninth column, when read left to right, records the ASCII equivalent
of the contents. (Note that the period character [.] in this column indicates an
ASCII character that cannot be displayed.)
After it displays the contents of the first header block, the SHOW HEADER
command displays the hexadecimal contents of the saved error log buffers.
See the VAX/VMS Internals and Data Structures manual for a discussion of the
information contained in the dump file header.
