	    applies only to the VAX 8600, VAX 780, VAX 6200, and VAX 3400 CPUs
	    and	 to  the VAX 750 and VAX 8200 CPUs whose system disks are con‐
	    nected to a Hierarchical Storage Controller (HSC).

       -c   Return the CPU type of the running CPU.

       -t timezone
	    Specify a time zone string as defined in the Guide	to  Configura‐
	    tion  File	Maintenance  for  the timezone global definition.  For

       -r   Return only the name of the root device and partition.

       -s   (VAX only) Return the value for the CPU  subtype  of  the  running
	    CPU:

	       Value	 CPU

	       11	 VAX8800

	       10	 VAX8700

		9	 VAX8550

		8	 VAX8500

		6	 VAX8300

		5	 VAX8200

		4	 VAXstation/MVAX 2000/3100

		3	 VAX60

		1	 MVAXII, VAX3x00, VAX62xx

       The value 0 is returned for all other CPU types.
