System Status Diagnostic Commands
How to Display Current System State
The disk-based program WOW displays the current state and history of the system. It must
be run from a CRT terminal. To quit the program, press any character key.
The command WOW -h displays only the current state.
How to Display Buffers in Use
On a CRT display, the disk-based command BUFFERS shows a continually updated display
of buffer usage by type. On a printer, the command prints only the buffers currently in use.
Free = 90 TIPs = 40 Poll = 5
02 #######
04 #######
BUFFERS shows how many of each type of buffer are in use. This command may help spot
Malloc: out of buffers errors (Malloc stands for memory allocator). Use ^C to terminate the
command.
An example of the BUFFERS display is shown. It shows the number of free buffers (Free),
the number of transaction-in-progress (TIP) buffers in use, and the number of polling buffers
in use (Poll). Buffers in use are represented as pound signs (#) next to the type, in
hexadecimal, of the buffer. Pound signs appear and disappear as buffers change type.
The table below shows the types of buffers available.
