What is vmsStatesMWAIT?

This counter reports the count of processes waiting on some system resource that doesn't fall into VMS's more specific wait-state categories. A growing count here is a catch-all sign of resource contention, prompting the admin to dig into resource quotas, such as AST limits or buffered I/O byte counts, as a starting point. For example, processes waiting for a scarce, uncategorized system quota during a busy period would accumulate in this state count.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.597.4.15.7.4
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> COMTEK-VMS-NM-SYSMGR-MIB::vmsStatesMWAIT

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.597.4.15.7.4.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> COMTEK-VMS-NM-SYSMGR-MIB::vmsStatesMWAIT.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> vmsStatesMWAIT.1
