SHOW PROCESS
SHOW PROCESS
Displays the software and hardware context of any process in the balance set.
Format
SHOW PROCESS [/qualifier[,...]][ALL | process-name | /INDEX=nn | /SYSTEM]
Parameters
ALL
Shows information about all processes that exist in the system.
process-name
Name of the process for which information is to be displayed.
11
You can determine the names of the processes in the system by issuing a SHOW
SUMMARY command.
The process-name can contain up to 15 letters and numerals, including the
underscore (_) and dollar sign ($) characters. If it contains any other characters,
you must enclose the process-name in quotation marks (" ").
Qualifiers
/ALL
Displays all information shown by the following qualifiers: /CHANNEL, /PAGE_
TABLES, /PCB, /PHD, /PROCESS_SECTION_TABLE, /REGISTERS, and
/WORKING_SET.
/CHANNEL
Displays information about the I/O channels assigned to the process.
/IMAGES
Displays the address of the image control block, the start and end addresses
of the image, the activation code, the protected and shareable flags, the image
name, and the major and minor IDs of the image.
/INDEX=nn or /ID=nn
Specifies the process for which information is to be displayed by its index into the
system’s list of software process control blocks (PCBs). You can supply either of
the following values for nn:
• The process index itself
• The process identification (PID) or extended PID longword, from which SDA
extracts the correct index
To obtain these values for any given process, issue the SDA command SHOW
SUMMARY.
11
Use of the process-name parameter, the /INDEX qualifier, or the /SYSTEM qualifier
causes the SHOW PROCESS command to perform an implicit SET PROCESS command,
making the indicated process the current process for subsequent SDA commands. (See
the description of the SET PROCESS command and Section 4 for information about
how this can affect the process context—and CPU context—in which SDA commands
execute.)
