Realtime Process scheduling Question - Dec Unix 3.2c

1. I put a process in SCHED_RR with a priority of 32 using
    sched_setscheduler(). The documentation implies that the
    Posix priority is not altered by the scheduler for processes
    in the SCHED_RR and SCHED_FIFO queues; however,
    when I look at the process with ps -OSCHED, the PPR
    value changes in the range 30-32. Looking at the process
    with sched_getparam() and sched_getscheduler(), the priority
    never changes. So, why do fixed priorities change?
    Our DEC support basically read us the manual and could provide
    no real help.
