No matter how I setup the "HFS device" it continues to show 
[DEVICE IS BUSY]


************

OUTPUT FROM WHAT FILE: DEVICE//

So then I wondered if could an IO task be occupying the device? 


Checking Taskman.   Current $H=60455,85003  (Jul 09, [EMAIL PROTECTED]:36:43)
                      RUN NODE=60455,84990  (Jul 09, [EMAIL PROTECTED]:36:30)
Taskman is current..
Checking the Status List:
  Node      weight  status      time       $J
 AKC:giant          RUN      [EMAIL PROTECTED]:36:30   7601      Main Loop

Checking the Schedule List:
     Taskman has no tasks scheduled.

Checking the IO Lists:
     There are no tasks waiting for devices.

Checking the Job List:
     There are no tasks waiting for partitions.

Checking the Task List:
     There are 4 tasks currently running.
     On node AKC:giant there is  1 free Sub-Manager(s). Status: Run

I can certainly and have been successfully writing, reading and executing 
files as the user (myvista) who is running GT.M on the system. 

Is this something to do with how the device is setup with reference to the 
device number and somehow when I try it doesn't properly set $IO ? 

Which defaults to the terminal i.e. 

GTM>W $IO
/dev/pts/1

And is it this variable that needs to be set to 10 so to gain access to the
HFS device? 

Select DEVICE NAME: HFS      Host File Server     /home/myvista/hfs.dat
ANOTHER ONE:
STANDARD CAPTIONED OUTPUT? Yes//   (Yes)
Include COMPUTED fields:  (N/Y/R/B): NO// BOTH Computed Fields and Record Number
 (IEN)

NUMBER: 10                              NAME: HFS
  $I: /home/myvista/hfs.dat             ASK DEVICE: YES
  ASK PARAMETERS: NO                    SIGN-ON/SYSTEM DEVICE: NO
  LOCATION OF TERMINAL: Host File Server
  ASK HOST FILE: YES                    ASK HFS I/O OPERATION: YES
  OPEN COUNT: 10                        SUBTYPE: P-OTHER
  TYPE: HOST FILE SERVER

I have been reading the GT.M documentation which is very interesting, 

http://www.sanchez-gtm.com/user_documentation/GTM-PG-UNIX44/wwhelp/wwhimpl/java/html/wwhelp.htm

but I still don't know why I can't write out a file. I'll read chapter 13 in 
Walters
and see if I can't find out more.
