      In this example, the SHOW DEVICES command displays the
      following information for each device on the system:

      o  Device name

      o  Device status and characteristics (status indicates whether
         the device is on line; characteristics indicate whether the
         device is allocated, is spooled, has a volume mounted on it,
         or has a foreign volume mounted on it)

      o  Error count

      o  Volume label (for disk and tape volumes only)

      o  Number of free blocks on the volume

      o  Transaction count

      o  Number of mount requests issued for the volume (disk devices
         only)

      XQP caching enabled, write-through XFC caching enabled.
      Volume is also mounted on MEAD.

      This disk is a device that performs its I/O through the Fast
      Path port PNA0. Fast Path is enabled for this disk, and its
      I/O will be processed on the preferred CPU, CPU 1, which is
      associated with its Fast Path port PNA0.

      The /FULL qualifier also displays additional information about
      Fast Path devices. A Fast Path device may be either a class
      device or a port device. An example of a class device is an
      HSC disk, and an example of a port device is the CI. For both
      Fast Path class devices and ports, the display indicates that
      Fast Path is enabled and lists the current CPU ID to which that
      device is assigned. Additionally, for a Fast Path port, the
      display indicates the port's user-established CPU preference
      (if any).

      The current preferred CPU and the User Preferred CPU can be
      set by using the DCL command, SET DEVICE/PREFERRED_CPU, or by
      issuing a $QIO.

      For more information about using Fast Path features to improve
      I/O performance, see the HP OpenVMS I/O User's Reference
      Manual.

    8.$ SHOW DEVICE/FULL PNA0

      Device PNA0:, device type CIXCD, is online, shareable, error logging
          is enabled.

       Error count                 0  Operations completed              0

       Current preferred CPU Id    1  FastPath                          1

      The above display shows that port PNA0 is assigned to CPU 1 and
      that Fast Path is enabled.

    9.$ SHOW DEVICE/FULL PNA0

      Device PNA0:, device type CIXCD, is online, shareable, error logging
      is enabled.

       Error count                   0  Operations completed             0

       User preferred CPU Id         2

      This example shows a Fast Path assignment made by a user.

      Normally, the User Preferred CPU ID matches the current
      preferred CPU ID. The reason for the mismatch in the above
      display is because CPU 2 was stopped. The port was previously
      assigned to CPU 2. But when CPU 2 was stopped, the operating
      system moved the port assignment from CPU 2 to CPU 1.

      If CPU 2 were started, the operating system would assign the
      device to the User Preferred CPU.

    10$ SHOW DEVICE/FULL DSA0

      Disk DSA0:, device type RAM Disk, is online, mounted, file-oriented
        device, shareable, available to cluster, error logging is enabled,
        device supports bitmaps (no bitmaps active).

      This example shows that a write bitmap exists for a shadow set,
      and that no write bitmap is active. If a shadow set supports
      write bitmaps, "device supports bitmaps" is displayed along
      with either "bitmaps active" or "no bitmaps active". If the
      device does not support write bitmaps, no message pertaining to
      write bitmaps is displayed.

      DSA13:        00010007      8248        0.01%   Minimerge  IPA Yes

      This example shows a SHOW DEVICE/BITMAP display. In this
      example, the bitmap is an HBMM bitmap that is active on node
      IPA.

      The /BITMAP qualifier is similar to the /REBUILD qualifier
      in that neither can be combined with most other SHOW DEVICE
      qualifiers. The SHOW DEVICE/BITMAP display can be brief or
      full; brief is the default. Use the /FULL qualifier to view the
      entire display.

      If no bitmap is active (or the device is not mounted), no
      bitmap file ID is displayed. The phrase "no bitmaps active"
      is displayed.
