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 SYS$DUDRIVER.EXE on OpenVMS Alpha V7.0.
This kit addresses the following problems:
Problems addressed in the ALPDRIV06_070 kit:
o These OpenVMS Alpha V7.0 problem corrections were previously
included in the multi-version ALPDRIV04_070 remedial kit.
They are now being issued as a V7.0 only remedial kit.
There are no new problem corrections in this remedial kit.
Problems addressed in the ALPDRIV04_070 kit:
o A problem exists with HSJ/HSD 30, 40 and 50 controllers. After
some event that initiates Mount Verification, a Pack-Ack will
fail to complete. The controller will report that it is making
progress on the command, but will never finish. This causes
all IO to the affected devices to be hung.
Problems addressed in the ALPDRIV03_070 kit:
o The system experiences repetitive Volume Processing Messages on
Host Based Volume Shadowing Disks. The CDDB$W_RSTRTCNT field
of the member devices will be incrementing as seen in the
REINIT Count field under SDA.
Problems addressed in the ALPDRIV02_070 kit:
o If the connection to the quorum disk is broken it can result in
quorum loss for the cluster. In this case, re-establishing the
connection to the quorum disk may not restore quorum for all
nodes. This could result in nodes being hung waiting for
quorum.
Problems addressed in the ALPDRIV01_070 kit:
o The CDDB$W_LOAD_AVAIL field is loaded with an incorrect value
which prevents "static" load balancing working as implemented.
o System crash in DUDRIVER. Usually in FUNCTION_EXIT but it may
occur at other places.
o The errorlog does not contain any information on the actual
command that has timed out from a Get Command Status (GCS)
command.
o Host Based Shadowset Virtual Units hang in Mount Verification
all IO to the device is stalled.
Problems addressed in the AXPDRIV01_062 kit:
o For systems that are members of a VMScluster system, and that
have a KFESA/KFESB EISA DSSI controller, failover of I/O
traffic using the PEDRIVER (ETHERNET) to the PADRIVER (DSSI) -
now works correctly.
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.
