ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for LAT on OpenVMS Alpha V7.1 through V7.1-1H2. This
kit addresses the following problems:
PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN ALPLAT02_071:
o VCRP packets are being overwritten.
o CREATE LINE LINK$NAME/DEV=XXA0: command in LATCP can crash the
system.
o After executing the following commands:
LATCP> CREATE SERVICE SERVICE1/APPL
LATCP> CREATE SERVICE SERVICE2/APPL
LATCP> CREATE SERVICE SERVICE3/APPL
LATCP> DELETE SERVICE SERVICE2
LATCP> SET SERVICE SERVICE3/STATIC_RATING=1
the static ratings for services following SERVICE2 can not be
changed.
PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN ALPLAT01_071:
o LATACP crashes with PGFIPLHI
o LTDRIVER crashes with INVEXCEPTN
o Some applications use break through the system service to write
to their numerous terminals at the same time. When LATCP is
running, the management LTA device created by LATCP is also
broadcast to. This slows done the application to the point
where the application exhausts its byte limit.
o An MC LATCP CREATE PORT command with an invalid device name
will crash the system.
o Set Host/LAT fails between nodes in the same cluster.
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.
