The system welcome message, if one exists, appears immediately following the SHOWME display. The information provided in the format above is defined as follows:

ITEM

MEANING

#S485

This is the session number. It may also be a job number.

(NOT IN BREAK)

An (IN PROGRAM), (IN BREAK), or (NOT IN BREAK) message to indicate whether SHOWME was executed programmatically, in BREAK, or directly from the MPE/iX command interpreter.

RELEASE: V.UU.FF

The RELEASE: V.UU.FF number is determined by Hewlett-Packard at build time of the operating system and provides an identity for software releases (also known as the MIT). This number cannot be changed. (Prior to MPE/iX release A.11.70, this was referred to as BASE.

USER VERSION

The USER VERSION: V.UU.FF can be given a value during a SYSGEN and allows you to identify any changes to your total software package such as patch level, third party software, or other specifics. Any ASCII character can be used. In prior releases, this number was printed out immediately after the MPE/iX product number HP31900.

HP31900 A.11.70

The PRODUCT V.UU.FF immediately follows the product number HP31900. It is determined by Hewlett-Packard when a new version of the MPE/iX operating system is compiled. This V.UU.FF number cannot be changed and is used when entering a service request (SR) against the MPE/iX operating system product for that particular release.

CURRENT

Shows the current time and date.

LOGON

Shows the logon time.

CPU SECONDS

Shows the central processor time (CPU) used by this job/session.

NOTE: SHOWME calculates CPU usage by adding the local CPU usage of the current process to the accumulated total of all terminated processes. The CPU usage listed for a programmatic SHOWME, therefore, would rarely agree with that for a SHOWME executed during BREAK.
CONNECT MINUTES

The amount of time the job/session has been connected.

$STDIN LDEV

The logical device number of the job or session's standard input device.

$STDLIST LDEV

The standard list device number.

Use

This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or in BREAK. Pressing Break aborts the execution of this command.
