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.

Problems addressed in the RTRAVME01C31 kit:

  o  Failed connection attempts to remote DECnet nodes used to result in
     repeated messages being written to the RTR log file.  The message
     text was concerning an XTI event requiring attention.  These
     unnecessary messages have been removed.

  o  A problem with the algorithm used to scan RTR backend nodes for
     journals belonging to nodes that were currently available could
     cause the RTR ACP process to enter a CPU-bound loop in certain
     multiple facility configurations.

INSTALLATION NOTES:

   The Reliable Transaction Router installation procedure uses the
   POLYCENTER Software Installation Utility (PCSI). For details on using
   PCSI, refer to the OpenVMS System Manager's Manual, Section "Installing
   with the POLYCENTER Software Installation Utility". 

   The PCSI kit name is DEC-AXPVMS-RTR-V0301-C142-1.PCSI

   The logical name PCSI$SOURCE is used to define the location of the
   software kits you want to install. For example, if the Reliable
   Transaction Router software is located in DISK1:[KITS], enter the
   following at the DCL prompt (or include the line in the system
   manager's login command file): 

      $ DEFINE PCSI$SOURCE DISK1:[KITS]

   When running the installation procedure for Reliable Transaction
   Router, you can choose whether to install the ODBC Over RTR Oracle7
   Server.  This is an RTR server used for supporting ODBC-enabled
   applications on Windows. You should not install the ODBC Over RTR
   Oracle7 Server unless you already have Oracle7 installed. 

   To start the installation, type the command:

      $ PRODUCT INSTALL RTR

   You will see a display similar to the following:
