ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for DECnet/OSI V6.1 for OpenVMS AXP on OpenVMS Alpha
V6.1.  This kit addresses the following problems. 

  Corrections for Base Components:
 
  o  Image SYS$LIBRARY:CDI$SHR.EXE

     -  Correct local 'simple name' processing.

     -  Correct error returned to Session for NET$ACP processing.

  o  Image SYS$SYSTEM:NET$ACP.EXE

     -  Include for CDI$SHR.EXE.

  o  Image SYS$UPDATE:NET$CONVERT_DATABASE.EXE

     -   Remove the illegal FDDI command for Station Buffers that
         prevented startup. 
     
  o  Image SYS$LOADABLE_IMAGES:NET$DRIVER.EXE

     -  Fix pool leak where VCRPs fail to be deallocated.
     -  Notify the $QIO interface when the incoming connection timer
        expires and the incoming connection has not been explicitly
        accepted or rejected by the target task. 

  o  Image SYS$LOADABLE_IMAGES:NET$OSDRIVER.EXE

     -  Include with NET$DRIVER.

  o  Image SYS$LOADABLE_IMAGES:NET$ROUTING_ES.EXE

     -  On a single circuit prevent unnecessary probe packets.
     -  On a point-to-point circuit a stale PDU size and pointer were
        used for the source NSAP which was used for cache table look up. 

  o  Image SYS$LOADABLE_IMAGES:NET$SESSION_CONTROL.EXE

     -  Correct pool leak of WQEs.
     -  Prevent PGFILPHI crash in GetLocalNodeInfo
     -  Second fix to prevent PGFILPHI crash in GetLocalNodeInfo

        in mailbox for 3rd party disconnect.
     -  Prevent crash on session ports in the WFCNTOCMP state.
     -  Server processes are not correctly being reused.
     -  Correct possible pool corruption.

  o  Image SYS$LOADABLE_IMAGES:NET$TRANSPORT_NSP.EXE

INSTALLATION NOTES:

This ECO is installed using the POLYCENTER Software Installation
utility. 

   Product Kit Name: DNVOSIECO04
   PCSI Kit Name:    DEC-AXPVMS-DNVOSIECO04-V0601--4.PCSI

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.


INSTALLATION CAUTION:

Due to an error in the POLYCENTER Software Installation, it is not
possible to install DEC AXPVMS OSAK V3.0, DEC AXPVMS FTAM V3.2, or
DEC AXPVMS X.25 after installing this ECO kit. 
  
OSAK, FTAM and X.25 PCSI installations require DECnet/OSI V6.1 which
causes the installation process to remove DNVOSIECO04.  This will leave
the system without a SYS$NETWORK_SERVICES.EXE and rebooting is not
possible. 
 
The original installation order must be preserved.  This will be
corrected in a future release. 
 
   Installation Order
 
   Place each PCSI kit in a unique source directory.
 
      1) DEC AXPVMS DECNET_OSI V6.1 /Source=[KITS.DECNET] 
      2) DEC AXPVMS X.25 V1.0-A /Source=[KITS.X25]
      2) DEC AXPVMS OSAK V3.0-A /Source=[KITS.OSAK]
      3) DEC AXPVMS FTAM V3.2-B /Source=[KITS.FTAM]
