Typically, these images do not have the same image generation flags contained in images released via the OpenVMS remedial patch process. Because of this, any debug or point-fix image that is in the SYS$COMMON area, will be replaced by any image of the same name installed by this kit. If this occurs, you will lose any functionality that is provided by the replaced image. If you wish to retain these debug or point-fix images, you can take the following steps: o Prior to installing this kit, move the test/debug image(s) to be saved to the SYS$SPECIFIC area. o During kit installation, you will be asked if you wish to delete the image(s) in SYS$SPECIFIC. You should answer NO for each image that you want to keep. o After installation completes, but before rebooting the system (if required), move the image(s) from SYS$SPECIFIC back to SYS$COMMON. 7.2 Compressed File nj This kit is provided as a Self Extracting ZIPEXE kit. To expand this file to the installable .PCSI file, run the file with the following command: $ RUN VAXTZ02_073.ZIPEXE 7.3 Installation Command Install this kit with the VMSINSTAL utility by logging into the SYSTEM account, and typing the following at the DCL prompt: @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL VAXTZ02_073 [location of the saveset] The saveset location may be a tape drive, or a disk directory that contains the kit saveset. Page 10 7.4 Special Installation Instructions: o Date Dependent Installation The DTSS$TIMEZONE_RULES.DAT file provided by the VAXTZ02_073 kit implements new timezone rules that take effect January 1, 2007. However, the kit has no provision for defining rules depending on the year. Due to this limitation, kit installation is date dependent. In order to have the old timezone rules apply for the balance of 2006, this kit will only install on systems after December 31, 2006. If the kit is installed before this time, the following error message will appear and installation will abort: Installation of the VAXTZ02_073 patch kit is date dependent. This kit will only install after December 31,2006. See the VAXTZ02_073 Release Notes for more information.
