Message Operations
For each communicator, TotalView displays a list of pending receive operations, unexpected messages, and pending send operations. Each operation has an index value displayed in brackets ([n]), and each operation can include the following fields:
Actual Source
If the Status is Complete and the Source is ANY, this is the receiving process.
Actual Tag
If the Status is Complete and the Tag value is ANY, this is the received tag value.
Buffer Length or Received Length
The buffer length in bytes, shown in decimal and hexadecimal.

Source or Target
The source or target process. Source is the process from which the message should be received. Target is the process to which the message is being sent. This field shows the index of the process in the communicator, and the process name in parentheses. The display shows ANY if the message is being received from MPI_ANY_SOURCE.
