[Info-vax] The PWAIT tool.

[Jan-Erik Söderholm]

Hi.

I have a process that is in "MUTEX" state.

I found some tool called PWAIT and tried that.
It runs inside of SDA (after DEFINE PWAIT$SDA to point
to the PWAIT$SDA.EXE) like this :

$ ana/sys

OpenVMS system analyzer

SDA> pwait SYMBIONT_669
PWAIT V1.0 (c) 2004, Ian Miller (miller at encompasserve.org)
built on VMS V8.2
reading symbol tables
%SDA-W-LINKTIMEMISM, link time of SYS$COMMON:[SYS$LDR]ERRORLOG.STB;1
( 3-DEC-2004 09:50) does not match link time of image in system
(18-JUL-2006 14:39)
Process PID 000261DC name SYMBIONT_669 No. Threads 1

Now, the questions is what this actualy tells me...
