UMAT - convergence during time increment

Hi,
I'm working on a UMAT subroutine.
Does anyone know how to distinguish (within the subroutine) if the subroutine is called for a non-convergent load increment, i.e. several times at the same step time (with smaller increments due to non-convergence)or the previous increment converged. I need store the updated state variables only at the end of convergent increments.
I'm using automatic incrementation.
Regards.
