display initcauses
The display initcauses command displays a history of recovery steps taken by
the system. This command displays information for restarts of the active
processor only. Each time the system performs some type of recovery (user
request or a hardware or software problem), the recovery information is stored.
The software error log also contains information pertaining to restarts. If a reset 4
(reboot) occurs, the software error log are also stored on tape. Information in the
software error log should be used in conjunction with information in the initcauses
log.
The history of the last 16 restarts performed by the system is recorded to the
initcauses buffer in chronological order. This buffer fills an entire screen with
information if it is completely full. Power failures in the processor complex wipe
out the entire initcauses buffer. In duplex systems, both processors have to lose
power before the information is lost.
