Cleaning Up Processes

The pvmgs process registers its task ID in the PVM database. If the pvmgs process terminates, the pvm_joingroup() routine hangs because PVM won’t clean up the database. If this happens, you must manually terminate the program and then restart the PVM daemon.

TotalView attempts to clean up the tvdsvr processes that also act as taskers. If some of these processes do not terminate, you must manually terminate them.
