: integer, status code returned by the routine.
Values less than zero indicate an error.

.SH DESCRIPTION
\fVpvm_start\fR  starts the  Pvmd3 which is    a daemon process  which
coordinates  unix hosts in a  virtual machine.  One  pvmd3 must run on
each  host in the group.   They provide  the communication and process
control functions  needed by the user's PVM  processes.  The local and
remote pvmds can also be started from the PVM console program pvm.

For example:
.nf
pvm_start()
 ans  =
 
    0. 
-->pvm_start()
 ans  =
 
  - 28.  
.fi
Error -28 means: pvm_start_pvmd(): Duplicate host
