ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for SYS$CPU_ROUTINES_1605.EXE on OpenVMS
Alpha V7.1 through V7.1-1H2. This kit addresses the following
problems:
Problems addressed in ALPCPU1604_071 kit:
o After installation of the ALPCPU1603_071 kit on a V7.1
system, the system does not boot properly. This problem
is only on V7.1 systems. If you have a 7.1-1H1 or V7.1-1H2
system and have installed the ALPCPU1603_071 kit, you do
not need to install this kit.
Problems addressed in ALPCPU1603_071 kit:
o Different versions of CPUs did not work together in the
Alphaserver 4100.
o Array indexing was changed from from [1] and [2] to [0]
and [1] respectively because the C computer language uses
zero-based indexing.
o Error log system data from a machine check logout frame
was incorrect.
Problems addressed in ALPCPU1602_071 kit:
o The ALPCPU1601_071 remedial kit, which applied to V6.2* and
V7.1 is being reissued as two single version kits. There
are no new fixes in this kit. If you have installed the
ALPCPU1601_071 remedial kit you do not need to install this
kit.
Problems addressed in ALPCPU1601_071 kit:
o Allow the use of mixed EV5 and EV6 CPUs on AlphaServer
4000/4100 systems.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
The images in this kit will not take effect until the system is
rebooted.
If you have other nodes in your OpenVMS 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.
