As of late last week there are two PINI states called RUNNING and PAUSED which 
cause processing at the very end of the iocRun and iocPause commands 
respectively, so RUNNING does occur after both dbCa and rsrv have started.  
There is no guarantee that all dbCa links have connected up by then though, 
and I've not checked whether the local channels have although I suspect they 
might — it probably depends on task priorities so might be different on 
vxWorks vs Linux.

Good luck with the move!
