HP Services Software Patches - dec-axpvms-dnvosieco01-v0701--4
 
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.

A.  Corrections for Base Components
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Corrections made to SYS$LIBRARY:CDI$SHR.EXE
  Image Identification:   "V7.1-ECO01"   15-JUL-1997 17:47:20.74
       - Add support for sticky cache entry.
       - Set default cache expiration timer to 0 (ie infinite),
         not either 7 or 30 days.
       - Convert old V1.0 and V2.2 cache files to V2.3 cache files
         to preserve cache with upgrades.              
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Corrections made to SYS$SYSTEM:NCL.EXE
  Image Identification:   "V7.1-ECO01"   18-JUN-1997 15:47:06.99

         After the initial error, the node object was deleted, but
         the .DNA_BackTranslation was left so that subsequent attempts
         to register the node failed with "name already in use".

INSTALLATION NOTES:

This ECO is installed using the POLYCENTER Software Installation
utility.

   Product Kit Name:  DNVOSIAE01071
   PCSI Kit Name:     DEC-AXPVMS-DNVOSIECO01-V0701--4.PCSI;1

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.  The reboot may be postponed if
it is not convenient to do it during installation of this ECO.
However, the new driver(s) will not take effect until after a
reboot.

Installation Overview

Install this kit with the POLYCENTER Software Installation utility (PCSI)
by logging into the SYSTEM account, and entering the following command at
the DCL prompt:

    $ PRODUCT INSTALL DNVOSIECO01/SOURCE=[location of the .PCSI file]

Note that the DECwindows Motif interface to PCSI may also be used.
