The paper introduces a class of vacation queues where the arrival and service processes are modulated by the same Markov process, hence they can be dependent. The main result of the paper is the probability generating function for the number of jobs in the system. The analysis follows a matrix-analytic approach. A step of the analysis requires the evaluation of the busy period of a quasi birth death process with arbitrary initial level. This element can be useful in the analysis of other queueing models as well. We also discuss several special cases of the general model. We show that these special settings lead to simplification of the solution.
