[comp.sys.dec.micro] RWAST state

ELEE24Y@UHVAX8.BITNET (05/24/88)

WE HAVE A MICROVAX WITH STANDARD DEFAULT ACCOUNTS AND RUN ONE DETACHED PROCESS
THAT WE ARE USING FOR LAB EQUIPMENT. THE PROCESS OCASSIONALLY GETS STUCK IN A
STATE ("RWAST" WHICH AS I UNDERSTAND TRANSLATES TO "RESOURCE WAIT FOR
ASYNCHRONOUS SYSTEM TRAP"). SOMEONE TOLD ME TO RUN THE ANALYZER AND THIS IS THE
OUTPUT THAT IT GAVE ME. THE PROCESS USES ONLY QIO'S AND AST'S. OTHER THAN THAT
WE USE JUST BASIC LEVEL FORTRAN IN OUR PROCESSES.DOES ANYONE KNOW WHICH
QUALIFIER I HAVE TO INCREASE TO MAKE THIS PROBLEM STOP HAPPENING? HERE IS THE
OUTPUT FROM THE ANALYZER:
