[Info-vax] Nonexisting "Owner process" of a device.

Thu Jul 6 12:46:43 EDT 2017

Hi.

This is something I see from time to time:

$ sh dev TNA8109/fu

Terminal TNA8109:, device type LA120, is online,
record-oriented device, carriage control.

  Error count               0  Operations completed           954
  Owner process            ""  Owner UIC                     [xx]
  Owner process ID   0007547C  Dev Prot         S:RWPL,O:RWPL,G,W
  Reference count           3  Default buffer size            132

$ sh proc/id=0007547C
%SYSTEM-W-NONEXPR, nonexistent process

Can it be said in general what can cause this?

We get some issues when re-creating the TNA device.
The "TELNET /DELETE 8109" command finish but the device
is never deleted/removed. The STOP/ID=0007547C gives
the same error as the SHOW PROC above.

We do have a work around, but anyway...

Jan-Erik.
