Table 1. show bcdl Field Descriptions

Field

Description

group

Type of download and the Group Services Protocol (GSP) group name.

gid

Heavyweight group (HWG) in the GSP. This is the group that a consumer initially joins. It is used by the BCDL agent to send control updates.

sg count

Number of subgroups for this particular download type.

agent jid

Job identifier of the BCDL agent. The JID is numerical identifier for a particular process and remains the same across process restarts.

node

Node, expressed in the rackslotmodule notation, in which the agent is running.

pulse

Pulse code used by the producer to pulse the BCDL agent.

new mbr

Number of new consumers that have not yet been assigned a subgroup.

sg

Subgroups number.

lwg

Lightweight group in GSP. This is a type of child group of the HWG. The BCDL agent tells the consumers to join this group to receive data.

fd

The connection handle between the producer and the BCDL agent.
