I tried Cancel Wait and the program continued but kept giving I/O errors, so I stopped to check other things. **CHIP PROBLEM**: Thu Feb 24 21:12:42 GMT 2000 These I/O errors always seem to happen around 2000 ut. I remember something being a problem at this time of day about 1 or 2 months ago and I think it had something to with some message buffer getting full and causing a stall problem. I searched in vain for messages regarding it but I'll keep looking, in the meantime I started Patrol with a new tape - this worked yesterday. **CHIP PROBLEM**: Thu Feb 24 21:22:52 GMT 2000 Stalled again with Program: 1082.847. Did a Cancel Wait to fix. **CHIP PROBLEM**: Thu Feb 24 21:34:25 GMT 2000 I found logs 99350 through 99352 mention the message queue problem and how to check the queues using the letter q. But it is still confusing whether what I'm seeing in those queues are normal or not. This latest version of the stall problem started with the latest software change to Patrol.
