Hi All,

I wanted to see if anyone had any comments on this situation.

A HP3000 aborting - I don't have any details, but it was a SA, and
it would not respond to control-b at the console afterwards.

Instinct tells me that this is likely to be a hardware issue.

The same SA is reported each time, and has occured once whilst a 3gig
file was being created with no users on,  and twice whilst users are
on the system.

I have suggested that it could be a bug I know about, where heavy use
of fork/exec can cause memory manager to corrupt memory.  But nothing
back yet from the RC.  They 'seem' to be having problems analysing the
dump.

Any of this sound like a senario you have seen?

Any thoughts?  - It's not my machine, and even worse it's FM'd, so I
don't know how much I can find out.

The real point was the lack of response to control-b - that worries me.

Vince.  PS Thanks to all for the supportive comments a few weeks ago,
        and the Adager Cube is sitting proud on my desk!  ;-)
