ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for LAT on OpenVMS VAX V7.0. This kit addresses the
following problems:
PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN VAXLAT02_070:
o VCRP packets are being overwritten.
o A CREATE LINE LINK$NAME/DEV=XXA0: command in LATCP can crash
the system.
o After executing the following commands:
LATCP> CREATE SERVICE SERVICE1/APPL
LATCP> CREATE SERVICE SERVICE2/APPL
LATCP> CREATE SERVICE SERVICE3/APPL
LATCP> DELETE SERVICE SERVICE2
LATCP> SET SERVICE SERVICE3/STATIC_RATING=1
the static ratings for services following SERVICE2 can not be
changed.
PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN VAXLAT01_070:
o LATACP crashes with PGFIPLHI
o LTDRIVER crashes with INVEXCEPTN
o INVEXCEPTN AT LTDRIVER+77B8.
o Some applications use break, through the system service, to
write to their numerous terminals at the same time. When LATCP
is running, the management LTA device created by LATCP is also
broadcast to. This slows done the application to the point
where the application exhausts its byte limit
o An MC LATCP CREATE PORT command with an invalid device name
will crash the system.
o Set Host/LAT fails between nodes in same the cluster.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
A reboot is necessary after successful installation of this kit. If you
have other nodes in your VMScluster, they should be rebooted or install
