  Bogus CPU time in print job accounting? 
 The Question is:
 
Running OpenVMS 7.1-1H2 on Alpha 255/233.
The accounting records for print jobs show reasonable start and finish
times, along with elapsed
time consistent with these start/finish times. However .. the processor time
(for a print job that
takes a few seconds to complete) is listed as several hours.
i.e.
Finish Time: 11-aug-1999  10:06:52.17
Start Time:   11-aug-1999 10:06:48.24
Elapsed Time: 0 00:00:03.93
Processor Time: 0 13:10:00.00           &lt;---- a trifle long here, eh?
Final Status Code: 00040001
Final Status Text: %JBC-S-NORMAL, normal successful completion
 
This print job job was sent by LPR (Process Software/Cisco/TGV Multinet) to
a remote printer.
What is actually being measured here?
(Batch jobs, interactive processes seem to have reasonable values in the
accounting report..)
 
 
 The Answer is:
 
  This is a known problem and a problem report (PTR 75-3-3075) is currently
  outstanding.  Please contact the Compaq Customer Support Center for further
  assistance with this.
 
  Pending resolution, using an OpenVMS VAX system to generate the reports
  will typically work correctly.
