ECO NUMBER: VAXF11C01_062 PRODUCT: OpenVMS VAX OPERATING SYSTEM 6.2 UPDATE PRODUCT: OpenVMS VAX OPERATING SYSTEM 6.2 COVER LETTER 1 KIT NAME: VAXF11C01_062 2 KIT DESCRIPTION: 2.1 Version(s) of OpenVMS to which this kit may be applied: OpenVMS VAX V6.0, V6.1, V6.2 2.2 Kits superseded by this kit: VAXF11C02_061 2.3 Files patched or replaced for OpenVMS VAX V6.0 o [SYSEXE]F11CACP.EXE (new image) o [SYSEXE]F11DACP.EXE (new image) 2.4 Files patched or replaced for OpenVMS VAX V6.1 o [SYSEXE]F11CACP.EXE (new image) o [SYSEXE]F11DACP.EXE (new image) 2.5 Files patched or replaced for OpenVMS VAX V6.2 o [SYSEXE]F11CACP.EXE (new image) o [SYSEXE]F11DACP.EXE (new image) 3 PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN VAXF11C01_062 KIT FOR OPENVMS VAX V6.0, V6.1, V6.2 o A Non-compliant ISO 9660 CD-ROM may have been incorrectly mastered such that the volume set fields in various ISO 9660 meta-data are left as '0'. ISO 9660 supports volume sets in the range of 1 to 32767, and thus there is no volume set, '0'. The code which does volume switching, has a coding error which -- COVER LETTER -- Page 2 9 August 1995 causes an INVEXCPTION crash. o The $QIO READ-ATTRUBUTES entry for ATR$C_BACKLINK failed to return the current file/directories backlink in all cases. This failure impacted Pathworks directory caching. 4 PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN VAXF11C02_061 KIT FOR OPENVMS VAX V6.0, V6.1 o A third-party ISO 9660 CD-ROM may contain ISO 9660 meta-data which does not conform to the ISO 9660 (1988) standard. If the nature of this non-conformance causes data lengths to exceed the current data buffer there is a possibility that OpenVMS VAX may crash with an access violation from KERNEL mode, (ie., INVEXCPTION crash). 5 PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN VAXF11C01_061 KIT FOR V6.0, V6.1 o Support for ISO 9660 CD-ROMs fails to return all files present in a directory when there are filenames without an extension, followed by files with the same filename. The failure shows up as missing files when a partial or full directory is requested. For Example: (COMPLETE DIRECTORY) Directory DUGAL$DKA400:[000000] FU.DIR;1 LISTS.DIR;1 LISTSNEW.DIR;1 PICS.DIR;1 SAP3E.;1 SAP3E.DOF;1 SAP3E.FDB;1 SAP3E.IMG;1 SAP3E.IND;1 SETUP.DIR;1 (INCOMPLETE DIRECTORY - Note missing files of type SAP3E.???) Directory DUGAL$DKA400:[000000] FU.DIR;1 LISTS.DIR;1 LISTSNEW.DIR;1 PICS.DIR;1 SAP3E.;1 SETUP.DIR;1 6 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Install this kit with the VMSINSTAL utility by logging into the SYSTEM account, and typing the following at the DCL prompt: @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL VAXF11C01_062 [location of the saveset] The saveset location may be a tape drive, or a disk directory that contains the kit saveset.
