HP Services Software Patches - alpauds01_061
 
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 the Audit Server on OpenVMS Alpha V6.1 through 
V6.1-1H2.  This kit addresses the following problems: 


  o  The SET AUDIT/SERVER=NEW_LOG (create new clusterwide audit  log
     file)  will  not always work as expected.  Sometimes it doesn't
     work at all and at other times it only works from one  node  in
     the cluster.

  o  MOUNT of a new shadow set by a non-privileged user fails,  even
     if  the  VU (Virtual Unit) had its ownership changed prior to a
     reboot.


INSTALLATION NOTES:

The images in this kit will not take effect  until  the  system  is
rebooted.

If you have other nodes in your VMS  cluster,  they  must  also  be
rebooted  in  order  to make use of the new image.  If it is not
possible or convenient to reboot the entire cluster at this time, a
rolling re-boot may be performed.

NOTE:  A  reboot  can  be  avoided  by  stopping   and   re-starting   the
       AUDIT_SERVER.   HOWEVER, if the system is experiencing the problems
       described in this remedial kit, stopping the AUDIT_SERVER may cause
       the system to hang.  If that happens, you must reboot the system to
       recover.  To stop and restart the AUDIT_SERVER:

             $SET AUDIT/SERVER=EXIT   (to stop)
