     | 
    
      .Number of main memory data pages currently being used by the extended
      file cache to contain actual file data, for this volume
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (2) Read hits
     | 
    
      Cumulative number of times a read has been satisfied from the data
      cache.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (3) Virtual writes
     |

     | 
    
      Cumulative number of times the extended file cache issued read ahead
      I/Os on this volume after detecting sequential file I/O virtual reads.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (5) Write throughs
     | 
    
      Cumulative number of times a virtual write has been capable of
      modifying cached data.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (6) Total QIOs
     | 
    
      Total number of QIO and PAGE I/O calls received by the extended file

      (10) Read arounds
     | 
    
      Number of Virtual Reads that cannot be satisfied by the extended file
      cache. Reasons for this include the presence of a non-XFC compliant
      node in an OpenVMS cluster, and the receipt of an I/O that is larger
      than VCC_MAX_IO_SIZE.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (11) Write arounds
     |

     | 
    
      Number of memory errors detected during boot-time scan.
     | 
   
 
By default, either single-bit or double-bit errors cause the pages to
be removed during the boot-time scan.  
Pages Allocated to OpenVMS
Any SHOW MEMORY display that includes the physical memory display
concludes with the number of pages permanently allocated to the OpenVMS
system. These pages include nonpaged executive code and data, the PFN
database, nonpaged dynamic memory, the interrupt stack, and the system
page table.

      Number of process entry slots (the value of the system parameter
      MAXPROCESSCNT) and balance set slots (the value of the system parameter
      BALSETCNT) permanently allocated when the system was bootstrapped.
     |

      Number of slots currently available.
     |

      (3) Resident
     | 
    
      Number of slots currently used by memory-resident processes. The number
      of balance set slots in use can never be any larger than the number of
      process entry slots in use because the SWAPPER and NULL processes have
      process entry slots but do not require balance set slots.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (4) Swapped
     | 
    
      Number of slots used by outswapped processes. For process entry slots,
      this number includes all processes that have been partially outswapped.
      For balance set slots, this number includes those processes that have
      had their process bodies outswapped but have process headers that are
      still resident.

      Total number of bytes set aside for each area.

     |

      total size minus the number of free bytes.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (4) Largest
     | 
    
      Size of the largest contiguous block in each area. For the paged pool,
      this number represents the largest block that can be allocated. For the
      nonpaged pool, an allocation request larger than this number will cause
      the nonpaged pool to grow (if other constraints allow growth). This
      attribute does not apply to the lock manager, as all items for the lock
      manager are the same size.

Dynamic Memory
Shows the use of dynamic memory areas consisting of variably sized
blocks.
  
    | 
      (1) Current Size
     | 
    
      Current size (in 512-byte pagelets on Alpha and in bytes and pages on
      VAX) of each dynamic memory area. For the lock manager display, the
      unit of measurement is megabytes.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (2) Initial Size
     | 
    
      Initial size of nonpaged dynamic memory and the name of the system
      parameter (NPAGEDYN) that controls this size.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (3) Maximum Size
     | 
    
      Maximum size to which nonpaged dynamic memory can grow and the name of
      the system parameter (NPAGEVIR) that controls this size.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (4) Free Space
     | 
    
      Amount of free space in each dynamic memory area.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (5) Space in Use
     | 
    
      Amount of space currently allocated from each area.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (6) Largest Block
     | 
    
      Size of the largest contiguous area in each pool area.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (7) Smallest Block
     | 
    
      Size of the smallest hole (free block) in each pool area.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (8) Free Blocks
     | 
    
      Total number of free blocks in each pool area. The size of this number
      is a measure of pool fragmentation.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (9) Blocks LEQU 64
     | 
    
      Number of free blocks that are 64 bytes long or shorter. This number is
      another measure of pool fragmentation because while allocation of these
      small blocks is unlikely, they contribute to the allocation time
      whenever an allocation request is made.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (10) Empty Pages
     | 
    
      Number of pages that do not have any packets allocated.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (11) Free Packets
     | 
    
      Total number of packets not in use. This number is the sum of free
      packets from partially used pages and the packets of all Empty Pages.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (12) Hits
     | 
    
      Total number of packet allocations.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (13) Misses
     | 
    
      Total number of packet allocation requests that could not be satisfied
      because the number of packets requested were not available. A miss
      causes dynamic memory to expand by one page to satisfy the packet
      allocation request.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (14) Expansions
     | 
    
      Total number of times that dynamic memory increased by a page to
      satisfy packet allocation requests.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (15) Packet Size
     | 
    
      Packet size of 256 bytes, which is used by the lock manager to hold
      either a lock block data structure or a resource block data structure.
     | 
   
  
    | 
      (16) Lookasides Free Blocks
     | 
    
      Total number of memory packets that the system has preallocated and
      placed on "lookaside lists". If a packet of the correct size is on a
      lookaside list, it can be allocated very quickly and efficiently,
      however, it can not then be used as part of any other size packet. An
      excess of packets on the lookaside list can be a cause for the
      inability to allocate other sizes.

SHOW NETWORK
 
Displays information about network services registered on a node.
 
 
Format
SHOW NETWORK [network-service]
  
 
Parameter
network-service
Specifies a network service for which you want to display information.
If you do not specify a service, the SHOW NETWORK command displays
information about all services that are currently registered on the
local node.
  
 
Description
The SHOW NETWORK command displays information about network services
available on an OpenVMS system.
 
 
Qualifiers
/FULL
Displays all the information for the specified network service.
/OLD
If you are running DECnet Phase IV, retains the behavior of the SHOW
NETWORK command prior to OpenVMS Version 7.0. If the local node is a
routing node, the /OLD qualifier provides routing information.
/OUTPUT[=filespec]
/NOOUTPUT
Controls where the output of the command is sent. By default, the
output of the SHOW NETWORK command is sent to the current SYS$OUTPUT
device (usually your terminal).
The asterisk (*) and the percent sign (%) wildcard characters are not
allowed in the file specification.
 
If you enter the /NOOUTPUT qualifier, output is suppressed.

services currently registered on the local node, and the name and
address of that node.
