Subject: [U2] Phantom job started from another phantom job

A colleague of mine ask me to post this on his behalf.

I have a Phantom job that runs continuously. The job performs a select,
executes some processing on the records returned from the select, and then
goes to sleep for a few minutes. After sleeping, the process repeats itself.
I
recently added an additional step after the processing. This step starts
another Phantom process which launches a program that does a select and
processes the results of the select and then stops (using CHAIN "OFF").

The problem is that our system admins have noticed that the "child" Phantom
processes launched by the parent Phantom process go into a state of
"defunct"
from a Unix process perspective.

$ ps -ef | grep defunct
 fhooven 23180   986 18 16:33:12 ?         0:00 <defunct>
  dscott 23302 23199  1 16:33:32 pts/tW    0:00 grep defunct

The child Phantom process runs successfully and the "defunct" process
eventually goes away.

Any idea what causes this?

System is Universe 10.0 running on HPUX B.11.11 A

Thanks for you help.
