The statement "all CSRs and vectors are set correctly" does not
appear to match with the remainder of the problem statement.
Please search for "serpentine" in the Ask The Wizard area -- it is
almost certain that one or more of the CSRs and/or one or more of
the interrupt vectors on one or more of the Qbus modules present
in this system is/are mis-set.
What you see in displays of the interrupt vector is what the VAX
console or the OpenVMS SYSGEN utility calculates the Q-bus module
should be set to, and not necessarily what the module is actually
set to.
Again, search for "serpentine" for several long write-ups on how
to set up a Q-bus -- it's _really_ easy to misconfigure the CSRs
and/or the vectors.
