INSTALLATION NOTES:
In order to use this kit, you must complete the installation procedure
described in the VAX Message Router X.400 Gateway Installation Guide.
Enter the following command from the SYSTEM account to execute VMSINSTAL and
install ECO4:
$ @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL MRXECO04023 OPTIONS N
where is the name of the device where you want to install MRX.
If you have previously installed and configured MRX V2.3, you do not need to
reconfigure ECO4 for MRX V2.3. If you have not previously installed and
configured MRX V2.3, you need to complete the installation and configuration
procedure described in the VAX Message Router X.400 Gateway Installation Guide
and the VAX Message Router X.400 Gateway Management Guide.
WARNING
When you upgrade to ECO4 for MRX V2.3 and start MRX for the first time,
MRX modifies the MRX$MSG_DIRS.DAT file to use full device names. Note that
MRX does not modify the MRX$MSG_DIRS.DAT file until you start MRX. If you
install ECO4 for MRX V2.3 and then try to configure MRX before ever starting
MRX, you will cause problems and MRX will not be able to update the
MRX$MSG_DIRS.DAT file. If you need to reconfigure MRX, the correct procedure
is as follows:
1. Install ECO4 for MRX V2.3
2. Start MRX
3. Stop MRX
4. Configure MRX
5. Start MRX
For more information, see Section 2.2.2 of the MRX Release Notes.
Note that this warning only applies when you upgrade to ECO4 for MRX V2.3,
and does not apply to new installations of MRX.
