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 DISKIMAG.EXE on OpenVMS Alpha V7.1.
This kit addresses the following problems:
o DISKIMAG.EXE is an OpenVMS Management Station V2.1 file that
ships with the OpenVMS Alpha operating systems. The file shipped
with OpenVMS Alpha V7.1 is in the wrong file format and therefore,
corrupt. The file is shipping as "stream" and should be in the
format "Fixed length 512 byte records".
DISKIMAG.EXE is located in the [TNT.CLIENT] directory.
Normally, the customer would FTP the DISKIMAG.EXE and
TNTCLID%.IMG files from [TNT.CLIENT] to their PC. The
DISKIMAG.EXE file is then used to expand the TNTCLID%.IMG files
to create floppy media used to install the OpenVMS Management
Station on a PC. However, if the customer attempts to use the
current DISKIMAG.EXE shipped with OpenVMS Alpha V7.1 to expand
the TNTCLID%.IMG files, the program will fail and be terminated
by Windows.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
The system does not need to be rebooted after this kit is installed.
However, if you have other nodes in your OpenVMS VMScluster, they should
be rebooted or you should install this kit on each system in order to
make use of the new image(s).
After installation is complete, FTP the DISKIMAG.EXE and TNTCLID%.IMG
files from [TNT.CLIENT] to your PC. The DISKIMAG.EXE file is then used
to expand the TNTCLID%.IMG files to create floppy media. Use this media
to install the OpenVMS Management Station on a PC.
