You're not an exception. Before upgrading a couple weeks ago, we *made
sure* we had all the most up-to-date patches, etc. However, we find today
a number of "ghost" VT sessions that show SYS ownership and cannot be
cleared without a reboot. HP is sending a patch to us. I had this exact
problem under MPE/iX 4.0 and got a patch for it then as well. Now the
problem has reappeared under 5.0! Doesn't HP roll previous patches into
their newest releases? Anyway, I'm mildly miffed, but not really
dissatisfied. The 5.0 release has performed quite well, aside from this VT
problem. Overall, I'd say "Great job HP!"
