Chapter 13 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting

Using Command-Line Diagnostics

:vxdiag_checkstack

Use the :vxdiag_checkstack command to display a summary of the stack activity for each access point task. A portion of the task stack might look like this example:

NAME	ENTRY	TID	SIZE	CUR	HIGH	MARGIN
------------	------------ --------		----- -----		----- ------
tExcTask	0x00001a1fd0 fd4e80		7984	224	960	7024
tSysIntegrit	0x000001b188	a3b1c0	16368	720	1176	15192
tLogEventMgr	0x00000fb0ac fd22d8		16368	2136	3616	12752
tShell	0x0000041da8	a2eb78	19320	640	2712	16608
tTelnetd	0x000002e220	a32d90	16368	376	1472	14896
tTelnetOutTa 0x000002e7fc 993da0			16368	720	1800	14568
tTelnetInTas	0x000002e858	98fb88	16368	1416	2376	13992

These are the descriptions of the information in each column:

•Name—name of the task

•Entry—entry point; the top-level function of the task

•TID—task identifier; the task control block

•Size—stack size in bytes

•CUR—current number of bytes of stack in use

•High—highest number of bytes of stack which have been in use

•Margin—the difference between the stack size and the highest number of bytes which have been in use

Follow the steps in the “Entering Diagnostic Commands” section on page 13-16to open the CLI and enter the :vxdiag_checkstack command.
