TITLE: OpenVMS] VAXMANA02_071 VAX V7.1 AUTOGEN ECO Summary
Modification Date: 07-JUL-1999
Modification Type: Updated Kit: Supersedes VAXMANA01_071
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 AUTOGEN on OpenVMS VAX V7.1. This kit addresses
the following problems:
Problems Addressed in the VAXMANA02_071 Kit:
o The SYSMAN security profile is supposed to be identical on all
nodes in a cluster that use the same security environment.
However, SYSMAN could use the authorize privileges from the
UAF, instead of the locally set privileges on some nodes.
For example, for a cluster named CLUSTER, node NODE1 should
have the same privilege settings as another node in the
cluster, NODE2.

Images(s) Affected: [SYSLIB]SMI$SHR.EXE
Problems Addressed in the VAXMANA01_071 Kit:
o A 6000-class VAX machine that booted off a DSSI disk kept
getting into the DOSD code. The system then concluded that
the configuration could not support DOSD and terminated at
TESTFILES.
Member disks of a shadowed boot disk were tested for DOSD
support, before the configuration was tested for support
eligibility. The problem appeared to be complicated more
because DUMPFILE_DEVICE was defined to the string
"SYS$SYSDEVICE:".
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 image(s).
If it is not possible or convenient to reboot the entire cluster at
this time, a rolling re-boot may be performed.
