Has anybody seen this before?? The system is an HP9000/330 with 4 meg,
the DOS coprocessor, and the 80 meg disc. The user did the following things.
1) logged in.
2) entered DOS.
3) stopped DOS, and did a rlogin to another machine. When he finished and
tried to re-enter DOS, things went all to pieces. The load started
to climb (reached 9.0 max), idle time was still 90% idle, Free mem
dropped to 16kbytes free, and swap utilization climed to 75% which is
appx. 9 meg.
It's running HP-UX 6.0. There were no other active processes, and just
the usual daemons were running. Below is a snapshot of monitor...

I would've tried to get more data, but updates were taking ~1 min. and
the user wanted his machine back, so exec reboot saved the day. I tried
to kill the process, but ps hadn't kicked anything back after about 5 min.
While I read this group, I'm sure nobody else cares, so please send replies

What utility did you use to generate the report that appeared in your posting? I've never seen anything like it on my 9000/320. -- _______________________________________________________________ < Randy O'Meara -- LMSC -- SCF > < {pyramid,leadsv}!oetl!randy PHONE: (408) 425-6249 > <_______________________________________________________________>
