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

       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

     Installation Rating:  3 - To be installed on all systems running
                               the listed versions of OpenVMS which
                               are experiencing the problems described.

     NOTE:  The following remedial kit must be installed BEFORE
            installation of this kit:

                 VAXCLUSIO01_062 for OpenVMS VAX V6.2 only

            In order to receive the full fixes listed in this kit,
            the following remedial kit also needs to be installed:

                 VAXVERI01_071 for OpenVMS VAX V6.2 only
                   The VAXVERI01_071 Kit has been superseded by
                   VAXY2K02_062.  Please install it instead.


ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for the DCL commands 'SET' and 'SHOW' on OpenVMS
VAX V6.2.  This kit addresses the following problems:

Problems Addressed in the VAXCLIU08_062 Kit:

  o  The VAXCLIU06_062 remedial kit required that the VAXCLUSIO01_062  
     kit be installed.  If the user tried to install the VAXCLIU06_062 
     kit on a system that had both the VAXCLUSIO01_062 and OpenVMS 
     VAX Y2K remedial kits installed, the VAXCLIU06_062 kit did not 
     recognize that the VAXCLUSIO01_062 kit had been installed.  This 
     caused the VAXCLIU06_062 installation to fail.

     There are no new ECO problem corrections in this kit.  If you
     have installed the VAXCLIU06_062 remedial kit, you do not need
     to install the VAXCLIU08_062 remedial kit.


Problems Addressed in the VAXCLIU06_062 Kit:

  o  If a customer upgraded their system to V6.2 from V6.1, the
     KITINSTAL.COM procedure, in kits that require the VAXCLUSIO01
     remedial kit to be installed first, did not properly verify that the
     VAXCLUSIO01_062 remedial kit had been installed. 


Problems Addressed in the VAXCLIU04_062 Kit:

  o  This problem was originally fixed in the VAXCLIU02_070 remedial kit,
     but this is a new problem that has the same effect.  This kit fixes
     the new problem. 

     When doing a SHOW PROCESS /CONTINUOUS command in a constrained
     working set, it is possible to get a PGFIPLHI bugcheck. 

     The problem occurs because a reference is made at elevated IPL, to
     one of several data cells located in pageable memory. 


Problems Addressed in the VAXCLIU02_070 Kit for OpenVMS VAX V6.2:

  o  When doing a SHOW PROCESS/CONTINUOUS command in a  constrained
     working set, it is possible to get a PGFIPLHI bugcheck.


Problems Addressed in the VAXCLIU01_070 Kit for OpenVMS VAX V6.2:

  o  A DCL 'SHOW PROCESS/CONTINUOUS' command can cause a system crash
     if the process being shown has already been deleted.


  o  In V5.5, when LAT master was used to replace the old LTDRIVER, a
     problem was found that might, in certain circumstances, cause a
     fatal bugcheck.  This occurred if the DCL commands 
     
          SET TERMINAL/PROTOCOL=DDCMP LTAn
     or
          SET TERMINAL/PROTOCOL=NONE LTAn

     were used.  Since DDCMP protocol has never been supported on LAT
     ports, a decision was made to disable the use of these commands on
     LAT ports.  Since V5.5 shipped it has been found that many customers
     have third-party software that does do DDCMP on LAT ports.  This has
     become a major customer satisfaction issue. 


Problems Addressed in the VAXCLIU01_062 Kit for OpenVMS VAX V6.2:

  o  The index file of a disk can become corrupted.  Closer examination
     of the index file will show that a large number of blocks in the
     index file, at contiguous VBNs from the start of the file, will
     have two words corrupted in the file at offsets 0x3a and 0x1FE.
     These correspond to the locations of checksum1 and checksum2 in a
     volume home block (homeblock).

     NOTE:  In order to receive this full fix, the VAXVERI01_071 ECO
            kit must also be installed on your system.



INSTALLATION NOTES:

The images in this kit will not take effect until the system is
rebooted.  If there are other nodes in the VMS cluster, they must 
also be rebooted in order to make use of the new image(s).  If it 
is not possible or convenient to reboot the entire cluster at this
