The SDA CLUE command invokes the Crash Log Utility Extractor,
    which captures specific crash dump information and, upon system
    reboot, preserves it in a file with the following naming scheme:

         CLUE$nodename_ddmmyy_hhmm.LIS

    You enter CLUE extension commands at the SDA prompt. For example:

         SDA> CLUE CONFIG

    You can get full help on CLUE by entering HELP CLUE at the SDA>
    prompt.

1  –  Overview

    SDA CLUE (Crash Log Utility Extractor) commands automate the
    analysis of crash dumps and maintain a history of all fatal
    bugchecks on either a standalone or cluster system. You can use
    SDA CLUE commands in conjunction with SDA to collect and decode
    additional dump file information not readily accessible through
    standard SDA commands. SDA CLUE extension commands can summarize
    information provided by certain standard SDA commands and provide
    additional detail for some SDA commands. For example, SDA CLUE
    extension commands can quickly provide detailed extended QIO
    processor (XQP) summaries. You can also use SDA CLUE commands
    interactively on a running system to help identify performance
    problems.

    You can use all CLUE commands when analyzing crash dumps; the
    only CLUE commands that are not allowed when analyzing a running
    system are CLUE CRASH, CLUE ERRLOG, CLUE HISTORY, and CLUE STACK.

    When you reboot the system after a system failure, you
    automatically invoke SDA by default. To facilitate better crash
    dump analysis, SDA CLUE commands automatically capture and
    archive summary dump file information in a CLUE listing file.

    A startup command procedure initiates commands that do the
    following:

    o  Invoke SDA

    o  Issue an SDA CLUE HISTORY command

    o  Create a listing file called CLUE$nodename_ddmmyy_hhmm.LIS

    The CLUE HISTORY command adds a one-line summary entry to a
    history file and saves the following output from SDA CLUE
    commands in the listing file:

    o  Crash dump summary information

    o  System configuration

    o  Stack decoder

    o  Page and swap files

    o  Memory management statistics

    o  Process DCL recall buffer

    o  Active XQP processes

    o  XQP cache header

    The contents of this CLUE list file can help you analyze a system
    failure. If these files accumulate more space than the threshold
    allows (default is 5000 blocks), the oldest files are deleted
    until the threshold limit is reached. You can also customize this
    threshold using the CLUE$MAX_BLOCKS logical name.

    It is important to remember that CLUE$nodename_ddmmyy_hhmm.LIS
    contains only an overview of the crash dump and does not always
    contain enough information to determine the cause of the crash.

    To inhibit the running of CLUE at system startup, define the
    logical CLUE$INHIBIT in the SYLOGICALS.COM file as /SYS TRUE.
