/COLLECTION [= {ALL|n} ]
Displays the contents of the file identification or unwind data
collection (on Integrity servers only) appended to a copy of the dump
using COPY/COLLECT or written to a separate collection file using
COLLECT/SAVE. By default, a summary of the collection is displayed. You
can specify that the details of a single entry or all entries are to be
displayed. n is the start block number of the collection
entry, as displayed in the collection summary.
/COMPRESSION_MAP [=m
[:n[:p[{:|;}q]]] ]
In a compressed dump, displays details of the compression data. You can
specify levels of detail by using the following syntax, where
m,n,p,q may each be wildcarded (*):
|
no value
|
Displays a summary of all compression map blocks.
|
|
m
|
Displays contents of a single compression map block.
|
|
m:n
|
Displays details of single compression map entry.
|
|
m:n:p

Displays compressed and raw data for the specified compression section
(item
p in section
m:n). Note that
m:n:p may contain wildcards (*).
|
|
m:n:p:q
|
Displays compressed and raw data for the specified range of compression
sections (items
p to
q inclusive in section
m:n).
|
|
m:n:p;q
|
Displays compressed and raw data for the specified range of compression
sections (
q items starting from item
p in section
m:n).
|
/ERROR_LOGS
Displays a summary of the error log buffers.
/FILE = {COLLECTION | DUMP [=n]}
If analyzing multiple dump files from a partial dump copy, or if a
separate collection file is in use, the /FILE qualifier indicates
whether the SHOW DUMP command applies to one of the dump files or to
the collection file.
If /FILE is not specified, by default, the SHOW DUMP/SUMMARY, SHOW
DUMP/HEADER, SHOW DUMP/COLLECTION, and SHOW DUMP/ALL commands apply to
all open files, and the SHOW DUMP/LMB=ALL and SHOW DUMP/COMPRESSION
commands apply to all open dump files. If /FILE=DUMP is specified
without a file number, then these commands apply to the primary dump
file.
By default, SHOW DUMP/BLOCK applies to the primary dump file. By
default, SHOW DUMP/LMB=n and SHOW DUMP/COMPRESSION=n apply to the
primary dump file or to the dump file for which the command was last
used.
All other qualifiers are applicable only to the primary dump file.
/HEADER
Displays the formatted contents of the dump header.
/LMB[= {ALL|n} ]
In a selective dump, displays the formatted contents of logical memory
block (LMB) headers and the virtual address (VA) ranges within the LMB.
You can specify the LMBs to be displayed by using the following syntax:
|
no value
|
Displays next LMB
|
|
n
|
Displays LMB at block
n of the dump
|
|
ALL
|
Displays all LMBs
|
/MEMORY_MAP
In a full dump, displays the contents of the memory map.
/SUMMARY
Displays a summary of the dump. This is the default.
Description
The SHOW DUMP command displays information about the structure of the
dump file. It displays the header, the error log buffers, and, if
appropriate, the compression map, the logical memory block (LMB)
headers, the memory map, the file identification collection, and the
unwind data collection (on Integrity server systems only). Use this
command when troubleshooting dump analysis problems.

This example of the SHOW DUMP/COLLECTION command shows the contents of
the file identification and unwind data collection appended to a system
dump when it was copied using the SDA command COPY/COLLECT. Note that
unwind data segments are found only in system dumps taken on OpenVMS
Integrity server systems.
SHOW EFI (Integrity servers Only)
Displays information from the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) data
structures. Currently, the only display provided by SDA is the EFI
memory map.
Format
SHOW EFI /MEMMAP [=ALL] [range]
Parameters
range
The entry or range of entries to be displayed, expressed using the
following syntax:
|
m
|
Displays entry
m
|
|
m:n
|
Displays the entries from
m to
n
|
|
m;n
|
Displays
n entries starting at
m
|
You cannot specify a range with /MEMMAP=ALL.
Qualifiers
/MEMMAP [=ALL]
Displays the EFI memory map. This qualifier is required. By default,
only entries in the EFI memory map with the RUNTIME attribute are
displayed. If /MEMMAP=ALL is specified, all entries are displayed.
You cannot specify /MEMMAP=ALL and also supply a range of entries to be
displayed.
Description
SDA locates the EFI memory map in the system or dump and displays the
contents. If no range is given, SDA also displays information about the
location and size of the memory map.

This example shows a typical display from the SHOW EFI/MEMMAP command.
SHOW EXCEPTION_FRAME
Displays the contents of the exception frame at the given address or
searches to display a one-line summary of all exception frames found on
all applicable stacks.
Format
SHOW EXCEPTION_FRAME {address | [/SUMMARY] [range]}
Parameter
address
Address of the exception frame.
range
Range of addresses specifiable as start:end or
start;length.
Qualifier
/SUMMARY (D)
- The /SUMMARY qualifier is the default.
- SHOW EXCEPTION and SHOW EXCEPTION range imply /SUMMARY.
- If a range, either start:end or start;length, is
given, then that range is searched instead of the stacks.
Description
Displays the contents of the exception frame at the given address
(which is rounded down to an octaword-aligned address), or searches to
display a one-line summary of all exception frames found on all
applicable stacks.
Under some circumstances, the exception frame of the actual bugcheck is
copied (by BUGCHECK) to the system stack for the CPU. Since this stack
is also searched, multiple hits may occur for this exception frame.
On Alpha, the search for exception frames relies on valid processor
status (PS) values in the PS offset from each possible 64-byte-aligned
start address for an exception frame. Since only some of the bits in
the PS can be validated, there may be frames displayed that are not
exception frames (false positives). Do not assume that each frame
displayed is actually an exception frame without further investigation.
On Integrity servers, the search for exception frames is focused on the
type/subtype offsets from each possible octaword-aligned start address
for an exception frame. Thus, it is likely that frames displayed are
exception frames.

The SHOW EXCEPTION_FRAME command example displays the summary.
Examples of the display of the contents of an exception frame are
available in the SHOW CRASH description.
SHOW EXECUTIVE
Displays the location and size of each loadable image that makes up the
executive.
Format
SHOW EXECUTIVE [execlet-name | /ALL | /SUMMARY (D)]
Parameter
execlet-name
Displays detailed data for the specified loadable image only. If you
use wildcards in execlet-name, SDA displays detailed
data for all matching loadable images.
If the command is specified with no parameter or qualifier, the default
is to display one line of data for each loadable image.
Qualifiers
/ALL
Displays detailed data for all loadable images.
/SUMMARY
Displays a single line of data for all loadable images. This is the
default.
Description
The executive consists of two base images and a number of other
executive images.
The base image called SYS$BASE_IMAGE.EXE contains:
- Symbol vectors for universal executive routines and data cells
- Procedure descriptors for universal executive routines
- Globally referenced data cells
The base image called SYS$PUBLIC_VECTORS.EXE contains:
- Symbol vectors for system service procedures
- Procedure descriptors for system services
- Transfer routines for system services
The base images are the pathways to routines and system service
procedures in the other executive images.
The SHOW EXECUTIVE command lists the location and size of each
executive image with other information such as link date and time. It
can enable you to determine whether a given memory address falls within
the range occupied by a particular image. (Table 4-2 describes the
contents of each executive image.)
SHOW EXECUTIVE also displays the base address and length for each
nonzero length image section.
On OpenVMS Alpha the execlets can be sliced; on OpenVMS Integrity
servers all execlets are sliced. This means each different image
section can be relocated in system memory so that the sections are no
longer contiguous. The SHOW EXECUTIVE display contains information on
where each image section resides.
The difference between a sliced image and a non-sliced image in the
display is that the base, the end, and the length of a sliced image are
blank. Only the image section base, end, and length are valid.
On Alpha, there are six different image section types: nonpaged read
only, nonpaged read-write, paged read only, paged read-write, init, and
fixup. Each section type can occur only once. Only the image sections
loaded into system memory are displayed.
On Integrity servers, there are six different image section types:
code, short data, read-only data, read-write data, init, and fixup.
Some section types can occur more than once. Only the image sections
loaded into system memory are displayed.
The MAP command makes it easier to find out in which execlet an address
resides. See the description of the MAP command for details.
By default, SDA displays each location within an executive image as an
offset from the beginning of the image, for instance, EXCEPTION+00282.
Similarly, those symbols that represent system services point to the
transfer routine in SYS$PUBLIC_VECTORS.EXE and not to the actual system
service procedure. When tracing the course of a system failure through
the listings of modules contained within a given executive image, you
may find it useful to load into the SDA symbol table all global symbols
and global entry points defined within one or all executive images. See
the description of the READ command for additional information.
The SHOW EXECUTIVE command usually shows all components of the
executive, as illustrated in the following example. In rare
circumstances, you may obtain a partial listing. For instance, after it
has loaded the EXCEPTION module (in the INIT phase of system
initialization), the system can successfully post a bugcheck exception
and save a crash dump before loading all the executive images that are
normally loaded.
