TITLE: CMS CMSVE01040 CMS V4.0 OpenVMS VAX ECO Summary
 
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 CMS Version 4.0 and DECset Version 12.3 on 
OpenVMS VAX V6.2 through V7.2.  This kit addresses the following
problems: 

  o   This ECO kit contains a fix to DIGITAL CMS for OpenVMS VAX and its 
      support for DFS served libraries and management of virtual memory.

      This ECO kit contains two fixes to DIGITAL CMS for OpenVMS VAX:

      1.  CMS doesn't access DFS served libraries.  Attempts to use CMS to 
      access DFS served libraries may result in the following type of error:

        $ CMS SET LIB DISK$DFS1:[FOO.CMSLIB]
        %CMS-E-NOREF, error referencing pathname
        -CMS-E-NOTCMSLIB, the directory spec is not a CMS library
        -RMS-E-XAB, invalid XAB or XAB not accessible at 009C9DAA
        -CMS-W-UNDEFLIB, CMS library is undefined

     This problem has been corrected allowing CMS to work successfully with
     DFS served libraries.

     2.  CMS causes virtual memory usage to increase significantly.  This 
     can cause CMS to fail with an insufficient virtual memory error.

    Both these fixes are planned for integration with DECset Version 12.4 and
    DIGITAL CMS Version 4.1.


INSTALLATION NOTES:

The system does not need to be rebooted after this kit is installed.
However, if the system is a member of a VMScluster, the other cluster
members should be rebooted or this kit should be installed on each 
system in order to make use of the new image(s).
