OpenVMS ALPSDA03_062 Alpha V6.2 - V6.2-1H3 SDA ECO Summary

 
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 SDA on OpenVMS Alpha V6.2 through V6.2-1H3.             


Problems Addressed in ALPSDA03_062:

  o  The   ALPSDA02_062   remedial   kit    required    that    the
     ALPCLUSIO01_062  kit  be  installed.   If  the  user  tried to
     install the ALPSDA02_062 kit on a system  that  had  both  the
     ALPCLUSIO01_062 and OpenVMS Alpha Y2K remedial kits installed,
     the   ALPSDA02_062   kit   did   not   recognize   that    the
     ALPCLUSIO01_062  kit  had  been  installed.   This  caused the
     ALPSDA02_062 installation to fail.

     There are no new ECO problem corrections in this kit.  If  you
     have  installed the ALPSDA02_062 remedial kit, you do not need
     to install the ALPSDA03_062 remedial kit.
  

Problems Addressed in ALPSDA02_062:

  o  If a system is upgraded to V6.2 from V6.1, the KITINSTAL.COM 
     procedure in kits that require the ALPCLUSIO01 remedial kit 
     to be installed first, did not properly verify that the     
     ALPCLUSIO01_062 remedial kit had been installed.                         


Problems Addressed in ALPSDA01_062:

  o  SDA does not handle relocatable global (non-universal) symbols
     correctly if they are in resident images.


INSTALLATION NOTES:
