TITLE: OpenVMS VAXDISM02_062 DISMOUNT for OpenVMS VAX V6.2 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) Compaq Computer Corporation 1998. All rights reserved. Modification Date: 18-MAR-1999 Modification Type: Article Updated as VAXMOUN03_062 is Now Available Modification Date: 02-DEC-1998 Modification Type: Updated Article to list the dependent ECO VAXMOUN03_062 as unavailable until a later date. Modification Date: 20-NOV-1998 Modification Type: Updated ECO Kit - Supersedes VAXDISM01_062 OP/SYS: OpenVMS VAX COMPONENT: DISMOUNT (DISMNTSHR.EXE) SOURCE: Compaq Computer Corporation ECO INFORMATION: ECO Kit Name: VAXDISM02_062 ECO Kits Superseded by This ECO Kit: VAXDISM01_062 (for V6.2 only) ECO Kit Size: 108 Blocks Kit Applies To: OpenVMS VAX V6.2 System/Cluster Reboot Necessary: No Installation Rating: INSTALL_3 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, or any required kit: VAXCLUSIO01_062 In order to receive all the corrections listed in this kit, the following remedial kits should also be installed: VAXSYSA02_062 VAXBACK03_062 VAXMOUN03_062 VAXINIT01_062 VAXMTAA03_062 ECO KIT SUMMARY: An ECO kit exists for DISMOUNT on OpenVMS VAX V6.2. This kit addresses the following problems: Problems Addressed in VAXDISM02_062: o A possible system crash occurs during Host Based RAID Unbinds with MME code enabled. A mailbox read synchronization problem causes the crash. This problem only occurs when a host-based RAID UNBIND command is done while an MME-based application is running. This problem can occur in several different code areas of the operating system. In order to eliminate all known instances of this problem, the following remedial kits (or their supersedants) will also need to be installed: VAXSYSA02_062 VAXBACK03_062 VAXMOUN03_062 VAXINIT01_062 VAXMTAA03_062 o A process using MME could potentially "miss" the VOL1 label on a tape. Also, a process could "hang" trying to send a message to the MME process. Problems Addressed in VAXDISM01_062: o SSRVEXCEPT in DISMNTSHR when a user (or application) attempts to DISMOUNT a tape that is in use by RTF/SLS. This problem is corrected in OpenVMS VAX V7.0 INSTALLATION NOTES: The system does not need to be rebooted after this kit is installed. However, if the system is a member of a VMScluster, the other cluster members should be rebooted or this kit should be installed on each system in order to make use of the new image(s).
