ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for Advanced Printing Software (APS) V1.0 on Compaq
Tru64 UNIX [R] V4.0D through V5.0. This kit addresses the following
problems:
Problems addressed in APXGW100E01:
o Potential job data loss in BSD Inbound Gateway
Job data files submitted through the BSD inbound gateway daemon
can be inadvertently corrupted when a newly submitted print job
has the same job number and originating host as a previously
submitted job. This scenario can occur in one of the following
ways:
- More than 1000 jobs are submitted to a particular printer
queue when the printer is disabled or backlogged.
- Two or more jobs are submitted to the gateway from one
remote host, and happen to have the same job number, even
if they are destined for different printers.
The version of the inbound gateway daemon supplied with this ECO
corrects the problem by giving spooled data files unique names,
based on the printer name, the gateway process ID and a timestamp
string. It is identified by the version string "1.0-A", which
can be obtained by running the program with the -V option.
NOTE: This ECO applies only to the BSD inbound-gateway daemon
supplied with the APXGW100 subset. Advanced Printing base
client installations do not require this ECO. To determine
which Advanced Printing subsets are installed, use the
following command:
# setld -i | grep APX
To determine which version of the BSD inbound gateway is
installed, use the following command:
# /usr/pd/sbin/in.bsd-gw -V
The previous version reports "illegal option -- V".
The version supplied with this patch identifies itself as "1.0-A".

INSTALLATION NOTES:
This ECO applies only to the BSD inbound-gateway daemon supplied with
the APXGW100 subset. Advanced Printing base client installations do not
require this ECO. To determine which Advanced Printing subsets are
installed, use the following command:
# setld -i | grep APX
Installation of this ECO requires the subset APXGW100 to have been
previously installed. During the installation process, updated files
will be replaced. To install this ECO, use the setld command:
# setld -l
Once the ECO installation is completed, Compaq recommends you stop the
BSD inbound-gateway daemon and restart it for the changes to take effect:
# ps auxw | grep in.bsd-gw | egrep -v grep
# kill -TERM
# /sbin/init.d/apx start
To remove this ECO, use setld to delete the ECO subset. When the subset
it de-installed, the original files will be replaced.
# setld -d APXGW100E01
