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.

V6.1-1H1, V6.1-1H2, V6.2, V6.2-1H1, V6.2-1H2, V6.2-1H3, V7.0

     o   The ALPSYSL01_070 remedial kit would not install  on  V6.1  and
         V6.2  OpenVMS Alpha hardware versions.  There are no additional
         problem fixes in this remedial kit.


Problems addressed in ALPSYSL01_070 kit for OpenVMS Alpha V6.1,
V6.1-1H1, V6.1-1H2, V6.2, V6.2-1H1, V6.2-1H2, V6.2-1H3, V7.0

      o  Dismounting the Cluster Quorum  Disk  will  cause  all  mounted
         disks  in  the  system  to  repeatedly (every quorum disk error
         recovery retry interval) enter mount verification.


Problems addressed in ALPSYSL01_062 kit

      o  When a node is having connection problems with the cluster  and
         is removed from the cluster with a CLUEXIT crash, cluster nodes
         can crash with LOCKMGRERR Bugchecks.


INSTALLATION NOTES:

In order for the corrections in this kit to take effect, the system
must be rebooted.  If the system is a member of a VMScluster, the 
entire cluster should be rebooted.
