1536.0. " ACCOUNTING PROBLEMS" by WEIN::MICHAEL () Thu Oct 05 1989 08:21

Hi everybody,

My customer has the following problem with decwindows and accounting:

Under accounting/full he sees TWA processes assigned to his username

at times, when he was logged out. Start time of this process is the

moment, when he quits session and end time is the moment, when he logs

in again. Similar problem described in DECWINDOWS_OLD (356), but no 

replies. Any ideas??

Michael

	doing a SHOW DEV/FULL on my 3100 in LAVC says: Terminal TWA10:, device type unknown, is on-line, record-oriented device, carriage control. Error count 0 Operations completed 2 Owner process "MORANDI" Owner UIC [SYSTEM] Owner process ID 23E00054 Dev Prot S:RWLP,O:RWLP,G:,W: Reference count 1 Default buffer size 511 Terminal TWA11:, device type VT300 Series, is on-line, record-oriented device, carriage control. Error count 0 Operations completed 2945 Owner process "MORANDI_TWA11" Owner UIC [SYSTEM] Owner process ID 23E00057 Dev Prot S:RWLP,O:RWLP,G:,W: Reference count 2 Default buffer size 80 So I guess these are DECterm windows. Maybe ACCOUNTING keeps track of VMS processes and server_driven DECw terminal emulation processes in a different way ? (actually this explanation doesn't sound good to me). re: .1 Don't get confused with TWA811/810 which is the PARIS-BOSTON flight :-)
1536.3	Possibly a DECterm bug	HANNAH::MESSENGER	Bob Messenger	`Wed Oct 11 1989 12:42`	7
	There is a problem with DECterm on Ultrix where it doesn't always kill the process running in a window when the user quits out of the session manager; I think it might depend on what the process was doing at the time the session ended. The same type of problem may exist with DECterm on VMS. -- Bob
