PARAMETERS

       tid     Integer task identifier of the PVM process in question.

       status  Integer  returns the status of the PVM process identified by tid.  Status is PvmOk

            status = pvm_pstat( tid );

       Fortran:
            CALL PVMFPARENT( TID )
            CALL PVMFPSTAT( TID, STATUS )

ERRORS

       The following error conditions can be returned by pvm_pstat.

       PvmBadParam
              Bad Parameter, most likely an invalid tid value.

       PvmSysErr
