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 DISMNTSHR and SYSMSG on OpenVMS Alpha V6.1
through V6.1-1H2.  This kit addresses the following problems: 

Problems Addressed in ALPDISM01_061:

  o  The ALPDISM01_062 kit did not include a new message that was
     included in a COBOLRTL024 remedial kit.

     This kit contains a new SYSMSG.EXE that includes the new
     message required by this DISMNTSHR.EXE and the new message
     required by COBOLRTL024.

     This kit should be installed after the COBOLRTL024 remedial
     kit to insure that the correct SYSMSG.EXE is installed.


Problems Addressed in the ALPDISM01_062 Kit for OpenVMS Alpha V6.1,
V6.1-1H1 and V6.1-1H2:

  o  A SSRVEXCEPT failure may occur in DISMNTSHR when an attempt is
     made to dismount a tape that is in use by RTF/SLS.  The Remote
     Tape Facility (RTF) is shipped with SLS.  


INSTALLATION NOTES:

The system does not need to be rebooted after this kit is installed.
However, if you have other nodes in your OpenVMS VMScluster, they should
be rebooted or you should install this kit on each system in order to
make use of the new image(s).
