ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for BASEstar Open Server for OpenVMS Alpha and BASEstar Open
Client for OpenVMS Alpha. This kit addresses the following problems: 

      o	  Fixed a problem in gom_server.exe. When it loads into the LNS 
	  database an object whose attributes, after having been
          translated in the form of an ASCII string, exceed 1024 bytes,
	  some data are lost. The gom_server returns the BASEstar
          error : E-BSTR_S_GOM_UPDATE_ERR.  

      o   Fixed a problem in evm_server.exe, which returns the following 
	  message
                EVM_SERVER: Exception Status: exc_s_illaddr.
          The error is due to an incorrect handling of the trace interface.

      o   Fixed a problem im ams_server.exe. The "execute actor" command
	  can randomly take a lot of time or be very fast, while running
	  the same configuration. 

      o   Fixed problems in dtm_server.exe when Mercury is used to connect
	  BASEstar Classic device access software. Dtm_server.exe aborts
	  its activity in case of a wrong message, causing a dtm_server.exe
	  hang.

      o   Fixed a problem in bstr__asynchronous_request_wait(), which does
	  not handle properly the "timeout" argument. Sometimes the function
	  returns the BSTR_S_TIMEOUT status although the timeout has not
	  actually expired yet. 

      o   Added code to avoid, where it is possible, the error 
	  F-BSTR_S_COM_CREATE_FAIL when $TRLNM fails in the Communication
	  Library.

      o   Increased the value of number of unsolicited massages that 
          a DVM SAP can receive.
	  
      o   Fixed a problem in reporting error in the Communication Enabler 
	  process. In case of "No LCPI port found" error, the Communication 
	  Enabler crashes after reporting the error. 
		
 

INSTALLATION NOTES:

THE KIT WILL CAUSE THE TARGET SYSTEM TO NEED ALL BASEstar REALM SHUTTING 
BEFORE THE INSTALLED IMAGES BECOME ACTIVE.  ALTHOUGH IT IS NOT MANDATORY,
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU SHUT ALL THE BASEstar REALMS BEFORE INSTALLING.
THE NEXT BASEstar STARTUP WILL MAKE THE CHANGES EFFECTIVE.
