ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for POLYCENTER Scheduler Agent for Windows NT for Intel, 
V2.1B on Windows NT V3.5. This kit addresses the following problems: 

  Improved Installation procedures that allows the option of using an
  initialization file to customize the Agent environment.  

  When an agent reached its maximum number of jobs, any additional jobs
  submitted to the agent would fail instead of entering the Job Slot Wait
  state.

  If there was a problem starting a job the job would fail, but the GUI would
  not reflect the correct failed state.

  Scheduler returned a remote jobs status of 255 if the output file 
  specification was missing.  

  The Agent would not start as a Service if there were jobs in the JOBREC.DAT
  file.

  Records were not written to RECOVERY.TXT.  The agent now records information
  about jobs that were running when it was last shut down in RECOVERY.TXT.
