| PvmOk | host is OK | |
| PvmNoHost | host is not in virtual machine | |
| PvmHostFail | host is unreachable (and thus possibly failed) | 
The routine pvm_mstat returns the status mstat of the computer named host with respect to running PVM processes. This routine can be used to determine if a particular host has failed and if the virtual machine needs to be reconfigured. The function pvm_notify() can also be used to notify the caller that a host has failed.
C:
| mstat = pvm_mstat( "msr.ornl.gov" ); | 
Fortran:
| CALL PVMFMSTAT( ’msr.ornl.gov’, MSTAT ) |
