TITLE: *OpenVMS] ALPF11C03_062 Alpha V1.5 - V6.2 F11CD 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.

ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for Files-11 CD support on OpenVMS Alpha V1.5 through
V6.2. This kit addresses the following problems:
Problems Addressed in the ALPF11C03_062 Kit for OpenVMS Alpha V6.2,
V6.2-1H1, V6.2-1H2, V6.2-1H3:
o The ALPF11C02_062 kit should have but would not install on the
V6.2-1H3 hardware release.
NOTE: According to OpenVMS Engineering, the fixes discussed
below have been included in OpenVMS Alpha V7.0.
If any of the fixes is included in a previous version
of OpenVMS, that version is specified in the text
following the problem description.
Problems Addressed in the ALPF11C02_062 Kit for OpenVMS Alpha V6.1,
V6.1-1H1, V6.1-1H2:
o When installed on a V6.1 system the ALPF11C01_062 kit would
install V1.5 images.
Problems Addressed in the ALPF11C01_062 Kit for OpenVMS Alpha V6.1,
V6.1-1H1, V6.1-1H2, V6.2, V6.2-1H1, V6.2-1H2, V6.2-1H3:
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 is left as '0'. ISO 9660 supports volume
sets in the range of 1 to 32767, and thus there is no
volume set '0'.
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.
Problems Addressed in the AXPF11C02_061 Kit for OpenVMS Alpha for V6.1,
V6.1-1H1, V6.1-1H2:
o A third-party ISO 9660 CD-ROM may contain ISO 9660 meta-data
which does not conform to the ISO 9660 (1988) standard. The
meta-data may cause the data lengths to exceed the current
data buffer. This condition may cause OpenVMS Alpha to crash
with an access violation from KERNEL mode, for example, an
INVEXCPTION crash.
Problems Addressed in the AXPF11C01_061 Kit for OpenVMS Alpha V1.5,
V1.5-1H1, V6.1, V6.1-1H1, V6.1-1H2:
o When a partial or full directory is requested on an ISO 9660
CD-ROM, files appear to be missing. If the first matching file
is a file without an extension, files with extensions are skipped.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
The system does not need to be rebooted after this kit is installed.
However, if you have other nodes in your VMScluster, you should install
this kit on each system in order to make use of the new image(s).
