SNA_RJE SNARJE_E03016 DECNET/SNA Remote Job Entry V1.6 ECO Summary
TITLE: SNA_RJE SNARJE_E03016 DECNET/SNA Remote Job Entry V1.6 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.

ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for DECNET/SNA Remote Job Entry for OpenVMS V1.6
on OpenVMS V6.2 through V7.2. This kit addresses the following
problems:
o Access violation after SNALU62$DEACTIVATESESSION is issued. An
ACCVIO would occur when the application tries to perform a
reconnect, for example, when the remote IBM becomes unavailable.
This would occur while using VMS/SNA as a gateway. It was caused
by the session block no longer being available or the receive
buffer having been deallocated.
Please note that the above title in the Release Notes should read
"Access violation after an attempt to reconnect". This will be
corrected in the next release.
o Connecting with the TCP Transport would fail. As a connection is
being established, the sequence of transports (default order is
Local, DECnet and TCP) is tried. If one transport fails, the
subsequent transports would also fail. This problem has been
corrected.
o Isolated Pacing Response (IPR) not being processed would cause
hang. When an IPR was received, and there are no receives
outstanding, the pacing state was not being set properly. This
led to a hang in the application after the pacing window was
exhausted.
o Fixed a problem with CLEAR WORKSTATION reporting garbage date and
time. This occurred on the OpenVMS AXP platform version only.
o The file SNARJE$RJESYMBOL.COM, which contains RJE status codes,
was not being built correctly in post-V1.5-ECO 02 kits, and hence
contained no status codes. This has been corrected.
o Added support for the Local transport on the OpenVMS Alpha
platform. This will enable local users to connect to Compaq SNA
Server without using a network connection. This is similar to
OpenVMS VAX local users connections to VMS/SNA. Example: $SET
HOST/SNA 0.
o Fixed a problem where the connection failed to a gateway because
the terminal ID was longer than 32 bytes. The following error was
returned:
%SNA-E-INVTRMPAR, invalid authterm parameter
-SNA-E-LENTOOLON, transmit byte count exceeds buffer length
This problem would only occur while logged into a terminal that is
TELNETed from another system and the access is to a PU2 gateway or
VMS/SNA through GAS.
o Rooted logicals no longer worked in post-V1.4ECO13 kits when used
in input file specifications. This has been corrected.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
This ECO kit is installed with the VMSINSTAL command procedure.
The minimum supported OpenVMS versions supported by this ECO:
OpenVMS VAX V6.2
OpenVMS Alpha V6.2
