ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for POLYCENTER Console Manager V1.5 on DEC OSF/1 V1.3 or
higher. This kit addresses the following problems:
o Additional system icons have been provided with this ECO. These
icons are installed in the default icon area.
o The editor UID file provided in the PCM Version 1.5 software kit
for OpenVMS AXP was corrupt.
o If you were running Eventlist interactively and restarted PCM by
selecting the restart option from the File menu, Eventlist would
not start up again in interactive mode.
o Eventlist would sometimes access violate or core dump when it
received events as a result of a user's program calling the
CMUserSendEvent API routine.
o Archiving Console Manager log files would fail with the message
that logging was disabled.
o The Console Manager Extract utility would not always extract the
latest console data received by the PCM daemons.
o The API routine CMEventContext would incorrectly return the log
length and time when the event text indicated that there was no
context for the event.
o The API routine CMUserSendEvent would access violate or core dump
if some of the required parameters were supplied as NULL pointers.
o The PCM daemon would access violate or core dump if the
configuration database contained details of:
+ An enabled system that used TELNET transport and had a
listener number containing non-numeric characters.
+ An enabled system that used LAT or TELNET transport that did not
have any information entered for a terminal server name or
port/listener name/number.
o If the configuration database contained invalid information for an
enabled system, the PCM daemon processes would sometimes access
violate or core dump.
o The character cell and X-windows editors had different limits for
event count and start values.
o There was a problem with the amount of memory used by the
Event Notification Services (ENS).
o If a user's program executed CMUserSendEvent a number of times, the
ENS daemon would access violate or core dump.
o The byte limit quota restricted the number of Eventlist connections
the ENS daemon could create. When it reached the quota, ENS would
exit.
o If the connection between a system console using TELNET and a
terminal server was lost while the PCM daemon was checking the
connection to a remote system, the daemon would access violate.
o The character cell editor did not remove blank spaces from the
front or end of usernames entered in the configuration database.
This caused mismatches when privileges were checked.
o The monitor interface did not interpret any key values set in the
initialization file.
o The monitor interface would access violate or core dump if you
repeatedly used the ONE and TWO commands with VIEW and SHOW.
o The monitor interface would access violate or core dump if you used
the SHOW KEYS command or SHOW SYSTEMS command to create a log
window, and then connected to and disconnected from a system.
