ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for ACMSxp V3.1 for Digital UNIX Alpha on Digital
UNIX V4.0B.  

o Server creation may fail with large number of procedures

  If a server had a large number of procedures it could take a long time
  for the server to be created if the sfs server didn't crash in the 
  process of creating the server.  

o txcomfnclim error shuts down queue server

  When the ACMSxp queue server signalled the error txcomfnclim the
  queue server would shutdown.  If the queue server signals this error
  the queue server does not shutdown.

o ALIST pop error signalled by queue server

  The ACMSxp queue server on occasion would cause the ALIST POP error
  to occur in the sfs server ascii log file.  

o Queue server failover problem

  If the queue server had a task server binding cached and the task server
  was shutdown for an extended period of time, failover for that task 
  server would no longer work properly.  


INSTALLATION NOTES:

Installation Overview
---------------------
Please refer to the V3.1 ACMSxp for DIGITAL UNIX Installation Guide
for more detailed information.

 Log in as superuser (login name root) to the system
 where you are installing ACMSxp for DIGITAL UNIX.

 Make sure that you are at the root (/) directory by
 entering the following command:

                 # cd /

 Specify the /cdrom directory to be the mount point for
 the distribution file system on the drive. If your drive
 is ra1, enter the following command:

                 # mount -dr /dev/ra1c /cdrom

 Enter a setld command that requests the load function
 (-l) and identifies the directory in the mounted
 file system where ACMSxp for DIGITAL UNIX subsets are
 located.

             For example, if the directory location for these subsets
             is /cdrom/AXP/acmsxp/bin, enter the following command:

                 # setld -l /cdrom/AXP/acmsxp/bin

  The installation procedure now displays the names of
  ACMSxp for DIGITAL UNIX subsets and asks you to specify
  the subsets you want to load.
