OpenVMS ALPQMAN05_070 Alpha V7.0 Job Controller/Queue Manager ECO Summary

NOTE: An OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file is stored on the Internet in a self-expanding compressed file. The name of the compressed file will be kit_name-dcx_vaxexe for OpenVMS VAX or kit_name-dcx_axpexe for OpenVMS Alpha. Once the file is copied to your system, it can be expanded by typing RUN compressed_file. The resultant file will be the OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file which can be used to install the ECO. Copyright (c) Digital Equipment Corporation 1997, 1998. All rights reserved. PRODUCT: DIGITAL OpenVMS Alpha COMPONENT: Queue Manager Job Controller SOURCE: Digital Equipment Corporation ECO INFORMATION: ECO Kit Name: ALPQMAN05_070 ECO Kits Superseded by This ECO Kit: ALPQMAN04_070 (For OpenVMS Alpha V7.0 *ONLY*) ALPQMAN03_070 ALPQMAN02_070 ALPQMAN01_070 ECO Kit Approximate Size: 1386 Blocks Kit Applies To: OpenVMS Alpha V7.0 System/Cluster Reboot Necessary: Yes Rolling Reboot Supported? Yes Installation Rating: 3 - To be installed on all systems running the listed versions of OpenVMS which are experiencing the problems described. NOTE: In order to receive the full fixes listed in this kit, the following remedial kits also need to be installed: None ECO KIT SUMMARY: An ECO kit exists for Queue Manager OpenVMS Alpha V7.0. This kit addresses the following problems: Problems addressed in ALPQMAN05_070: o BATCH/PRINT problems corrected: + The DCL command SHOW QUEUE/MANAGER would hang on some nodes. The job controller process would hang in the LEF state. + After queue manager failover from VAX to Alpha, the job controller process (on Alpha) hangs in LEF causing the queues on the Alpha system to remain in a starting state. The queues remain there until the job controller is stopped and restarted. Also, the SHOW QUEUE/MANAGER command hangs. o When booting in a new node or failing over the queue manager, the cluster appears to hang. The job controller continually produces dump files at SYS$SYSTEM:JBC$JOB_CONTROL.DMP. The error reported in the dump is "feature incompatible with previous system version". o DCPS-F-STREAMUSE and queue become stuck in starting errors: + Occasional flagging of a DCPS-F-STREAMUSE error while starting DCPS queues. + Print Queues (either LAT, DQS or DCPS) may hang stuck in a starting state. Problems addressed in ALPQMAN04_070 for OpenVMS Alpha V7.0: o Being re-issued to keep Message Routines current with Library RTL kit. There are no new fixes in this kit. Problems addressed in ALPQMAN03_070 for OpenVMS Alpha V7.0: o The ALPQMAN02_070 remedial kit would not install on V6.1 and V6.2 OpenVMS Alpha hardware versions. There are no additional problem fixes in this remedial kit. Problems addressed in ALPQMAN02_070 for OpenVMS Alpha V7.0: o Delete/Entry on a starting job fails to stop the job. The job stays in an aborting state and processes to completion. o When F$GETQUI is used at DCL to obtain queue manager information, certain combinations of items can hang the process. o The queue manager stops after the following messages are issued in OPCOM: %%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 8-MAY-1996 14:52:17.83 %%%%%%%%%%% Message from user QUEUE_MANAGE on HULAW3 %QMAN-W-LOWMEMORY, the queue manager process may require more virtual memory than is currently available %%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 8-MAY-1996 14:53:07.20 %%%%%%%%%%% Message from user QUEUE_MANAGE on HULAW3 %QMAN-F-ALLOCMEM, error allocating virtual memory %%%%%%%%%%% OPCOM 8-MAY-1996 14:53:07.24 %%%%%%%%%%% Message from user QUEUE_MANAGE on HULAW3 -LIB-F-INSVIRMEM, insufficient virtual memory Problems addressed in ALPQMAN01_070 for OpenVMS Alpha V6.1, V6.1-1H1, V6.1-1H2, V6.2, V6.2-1H1, V6.2-1H2, V7.0: o LATSYM symbiont processes run with less than the maximum number of queues assigned. INSTALLATION NOTES: The images in this kit will not take effect until the system is rebooted. If you have other nodes in your OpenVMS cluster, they must also be rebooted in order to make use of the new image(s). If it is not possible or convenient to reboot the entire cluster at this time, a rolling re-boot may be performed.
