Operation Notes

  • Usage

    You can enter this command from a session, a job, a program, or in break mode. Pressing Break aborts execution of this command.

Example

  • To display the status of the current job or session, enter:

    
    
       :SHOWME
    
       USER: #S485,MGR.DSUSER,PUB      (NOT IN BREAK)
    
       RELEASE: A.41.00  MPE XL HP31900 A.51.07  USER VERSION: A.41.00
    
       CURRENT: TUE, AUG 27, 1991,  3:33 PM
    
       LOGON:   TUE, AUG 27, 1991,  9:51 AM
    
       CPU SECONDS: 6         CONNECT MINUTES: 342
    
       $STDIN LDEV: 28         $STDLIST LDEV: 28
    

    In the example above, the fields show the following information:

    FIELD

    DEFINITION

    USER

    Shows the job or session number, account, user, and group. The messages (IN PROGRAM), (IN BREAK), or (NOT IN BREAK) indicate whether you entered SHOWME programmatically or directly from the MPE/iX command interpreter.

    RELEASE

    Shows two version, update level, and fix (v.uu.ff) numbers. The first v.uu.ff is the release number that shows the operating system release identifier. This number is established by Hewlett-Packard during their build of the entire software release package and provides an identity for the release.

    The second v.uu.ff is the product number. This number is established by Hewlett-Packard and serves as a unique identifier for service requests (SRs) submitted against the operating system.

    USER VERSION

    Shows the version, update level, and fix (v.uu.ff) assigned to your system. This can be given a value during SYSGEN and enables you to identify any of your software changes, such as patch level and third-party software.

    CURRENT

    Shows the current time and date.

    LOGON

    Shows the logon time.

    CPU SECONDS

    Shows the amount of central processor unit (CPU) time in seconds that this job or session has consumed.

    Note that 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 entered in break mode.

    CONNECT MINUTES

    Shows the amount of time in minutes the job or session has been connected.

    $STDIN LDEV

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

    $STDLIST LDEV

    Shows the standard list device number.
