NOTE:  An OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file is stored

       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

ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for DECnet for OpenVMS Alpha V6.2 on OpenVMS Alpha 
V6.1 through V6.2-1H3.  This kit addresses the following problems:

  o  The CPU affinity for NETACP was modified to prevent a potential
     system crash or race conditions leading to a deaccess hang in
     an SMP or EV5 environment.

  o  This kit will also modify the DECnet $PROBE to prevent an access
     violation on zero length $QIO reads or writes.  This zero length
     $QIO for example could be used when terminating a series of
     IO$M_MULTIPLE reads or writes.

  o Prevent corruption within local data transfer optimization code.


INSTALLATION NOTES:

The system must be rebooted for the new NETDRIVER image to be loaded.
