DSM Perform SPI Request

The following trace record is generated after a SPI request has been decoded and

immediately prior to the performance of the SPI request.

For example, when the SCF command INFO PROCESS $QFTIE is issued as the

$QFTIE process is being traced, the following trace record is generated:

INFO PROCESS

is the SPI command that was issued.

$QFTIE

is the initiator or responder process that was specified in the SPI command.

(3,17)

is an integer pair that Tandem uses internally and is reserved for the programmatic

management interface.

INFO PROCESS $QFTIE (3,17)

Note. If you include a system name in a command, such as an INFO PROCESS command,

SCF correctly parses that system name. However, SCF does not put the system name into the

SPI buffer. Therefore, when a process is traced, the trace collector only includes the process

name, not the system name, as reflected in the PTrace display.
