OpenVMS ALPMANA02_071 Alpha V7.1__V7.1-1 SMI$SHR ECO Summary

TITLE: OpenVMS ALPMANA02_071 Alpha V7.1__V7.1-1 SMI$SHR ECO Summary Modification Date: 14-AUG-2000 Modification Type: Updated Kit: Supersedes ALPMANA01_071 NOTE: An OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file is stored on the Internet in a self-expanding compressed file. For OpenVMS savesets, the name of the compressed saveset file will be kit_name.a-dcx_vaxexe for OpenVMS VAX or kit_name.a-dcx_axpexe for OpenVMS Alpha. Once the OpenVMS saveset is copied to your system, expand the compressed saveset by typing RUN kitname.dcx_vaxexe or kitname.dcx_alpexe. For PCSI files, once the PCSI file is copied to your system, rename the PCSI file to kitname-dcx_axpexe.pcsi, then it can be expanded by typing RUN kitname-dcx_axpexe.pcsi. The resultant file will be the PCSI installation file which can be used to install the ECO. Copyright (c) Compaq Computer Corporation 1999, 2000. All rights reserved. PRODUCT: OpenVMS Alpha COMPONENT: SMI$SHR.EXE SOURCE: Compaq Computer Corporation ECO INFORMATION: ECO Kit Name: ALPMANA02_071 ECO Kits Superseded by This ECO Kit: ALPMANA01_071 ECO Kit Approximate Size: 630 Blocks Kit Applies To: OpenVMS Alpha V7.1, V7.1-1H1, V7.1-1H2 System/Cluster Reboot Necessary: No Rolling Re-boot Supported: No Installation Rating: INSTALL_3 - To be installed on all systems running the listed versions of OpenVMS which are experiencing the problems described. Kit Dependencies: The following remedial kit(s) must be installed BEFORE installation of this kit: ALPBASE01_071 In order to receive all the corrections listed in this kit, the following remedial kits should also be installed: None ECO KIT SUMMARY: An ECO kit exists for SMI$SHR on OpenVMS Alpha V7.1 through V7.1-1H2. This kit addresses the following problems: Problems Addressed in the ALPMANA02_071 Kit: o Shutting down a node that shares cluster system files on shadowed disks results in shadow merge operations at reboot. The security server process keeps files open for performance reasons. Images Affected: [SYSEXE]SHUTDOWN.COM Problems Addressed in the ALPMANA01_071 Kit: o Make the SYSMAN security profile consistent clusterwide. SYSMAN security profile is supposed to be identical on all nodes in a cluster that use the same security environment. SYSMAN could use the authorize privileges from the UAF, instead of the locally set privileges on some nodes. For example, for a cluster named CLUSTER, node NODE1 should have same privilege settings as another node in the cluster, NODE2.
