ANALYZE
The ANALYZE commands invoke utilities to examine various
components of an OpenVMS system. They perform the following
functions:
o Invoke the Audit Analysis Utility to extract selective
information from the system security audit journal (see
/AUDIT).
o Invoke the System Dump Analyzer (SDA) to examine the specified
dump file (see /CRASH_DUMP).
o Invoke the Analyze/Disk_Structure Utility to examine disk
volumes (see /DISK_STRUCTURE).
o Invoke the Errorlog Report Formatter to selectively report the
contents of an error log file (see /ERROR_LOG).
o Describe the contents of an image file or shareable image file
(see /IMAGE).
o Invoke the Bad Utility to find disk blocks that cannot be used
to store data (see /MEDIA).
o Describe the contents of an object file (see /OBJECT).
o Invoke the OpenVMS Debugger for analysis of a process dump file
(see /PROCESS_DUMP).
o Analyze the internal structure of an RMS file (see /RMS_FILE).
o Invoke the SDA to examine the running system (see /SYSTEM).
The default analyze function is to examine object modules
(ANALYZE/OBJECT).
