Dear SCO Customer The enclosed Support Level Supplement (SLS) PTF3219, the UnixWare 'a_wss' Supplement, resolves an issue where the 'ps -y' command was printing incorrect values. The definition of a_wss was not clear and therefore was not maintained properly in the kernel. As a result, the ps(1) command did not print sensible values in the RSS field when invoked with the '-y' option. The /proc filesystem in SLS PTF3219 has been modified to correct this problem with 'ps -y'.
