info - online diagnostic tool

info outputs POSIX subsystem characteristics during a POSIX session. In addition to general information relating to the status of the subsystem it supplies selected items of process information relating to the POSIX users in varying degrees of detail.

Ordinary POSIX users are shown information on the general status of the POSIX subsystem (option -s), on the POSIX control parameters (option -t) and on their own processes.

The POSIX administrator can also view information on any user process running on the system.

-d

Produces a dump for the POSIX subsystem

-h

-p

Concise information on all POSIX user processes

-s

General information on the status of the POSIX subsystem

-t

Lists the POSIX control parameters (see the manual "POSIX Basics for Users and System Administrators" [1])

-pf

ID number (UID).

-pf -g gid

Full information on all processes with the group ID number gid.

-p -p pid

Example 1

A POSIX user requesting information about the POSIX subsystem:

$ info -s
GLOBAL SYSTEM INFORMATION:
init-TSN: 38YK
System status: System is activ !
Rootfsname: :POSX:$SYSROOT.FS.ROOT
Number of POSIX users (without 'init' and 'info'):
  TU users          : 6
  TPR users         : 0
  Connected tasks   : 6
$

Example 2

The POSIX administrator requesting information about POSIX user processes:

# info -p
