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$DADDRIVER, SYS$LADDRIVER, SYS$LASTDRIVER, and
SYS$MADDRIVER on OpenVMS VAX V7.0. This kit addresses the following problems:
PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN VAXLAD01_070 KIT:
o The occasional packet transmitted by EWDRIVER had a source
address and protocol type of zeros, which are discarded by the
receiver. The booting system then retransmitted the packet 3
seconds later. However, since it is handling only 10 packets
per second, the system booted very slowly.
o If LADDRIVER parses connection (or solicitation) messages that
have the sign bit set in the service class (an invalid value),
the OpenVMS system will crash with an INVEXCEPTN bugcheck.
o LASTDRIVER/DADDRIVER/MADDRIVER fixes:
1. Typing a CTRL/Y at a certain instance could cause an
IO$_PACKACK function to a MAD device to be canceled. The
result could eventually be that the system crashes in I/O
post processing.
2. LADCP BIND/UNIT=x will cause a duplicate UCB unit number to
be generated if the unit number specified is greater then
the seed unit number. This problem can happen for both
DADDRIVER and MADDRIVER.
o LASTDRIVER crashes when it receives a run message in circuit
stalled.
o When booting from a CD, the InfoServer client can't be started.
o InfoServer Client STOP/START bugs were fixed.
o The system crashes in LTDRIVER when SSB is deleted prematurely
while an UNLOAD is in progress.
o The LASTDRIVER image crashes when it receives an Advertisement
(ADV) or Solicit (SOL) message with a negative message length.
o An overrun error on magtape occurs if the record size is
greater then 65024.
o In the past, BIND/TAPE/NOPERMANENT "tape_service" created a
MADx device UCB that could be deleted once the UCB reference
count went to zero. Problems occurred when the UCB was deleted
due to the use of the /NOPERMANENT qualifier, that is
multivolume BACKUP.
Note: A MAD device is a tape device that is attached to an
InfoServer.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
The images in this kit will not take effect until the system is
rebooted. If there are other nodes in the VMScluster, they must
also be rebooted in order to make use of the new images.
If it is not possible or convenient to reboot the entire cluster at
