New Kit Date : 23-APR-2001
Modification Date: Not Applicable
Modification Type: New Kit
NOTE: An OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file is stored
on the Internet in a self-expanding compressed file.
For OpenVMS savesets, the name of the compressed saveset
file will be kit_name.a-dcx_vaxexe for OpenVMS VAX or
kit_name.a-dcx_axpexe for OpenVMS Alpha. Once the OpenVMS
saveset is copied to your system, expand the compressed
saveset by typing RUN kitname.dcx_vaxexe or kitname.dcx_alpexe.
For PCSI files, once the PCSI file is copied to your system,
rename the PCSI file to kitname-dcx_axpexe.pcsi, then it can
be expanded by typing RUN kitname-dcx_axpexe.pcsi. The resultant
file will be the PCSI installation file which can be used to install
the ECO.

ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for System Components on OpenVMS Alpha V7.2-1. This
kit addresses the following problems:
o The PURGE/CONFIRM command(s) across the network does not
prompt with file names. See example below:
>>USER GO> Purge TEST1:: /Confirm
>> DELETE ? [N]:
>> DELETE ? [N]:
>> DELETE ? [N]:
If one file name is purged, the user is then prompted for
other file names. See example below:
>>USER GO> Purge TEST1:: /Confirm
>> DELETE ? [N]:
>> DELETE ? [N]:
>> DELETE ? [N]:
>> DELETE ? [N]: y
>> DELETE 0""::SYS$SPECIFIC:[FAL$SERVER]NET$SERVER.LOG;4301 ? [N]:
Images Affected: [SYSEXE]DELETE.EXE
o A network purge incorrectly deletes all files with the same
name(s), even if the files are in different directories. See
the test sample below:
$ pu/log/noconf 0"system password"::disk1:[test...]*.txt
%PURGE-I-FILPURG, 0"system password"::DISK1:[TEST.A]1.TXT;1
deleted (0 blocks)
%PURGE-I-FILPURG, 0"system password"::DISK1:[TEST.C]1.TXT;2
deleted (0 blocks)
%PURGE-I-FILPURG, 0"system password"::DISK1:[TEST.C]1.TXT;1
deleted (0 blocks)
%PURGE-I-FILPURG, 0"system password"::DISK1:[TEST.C]3.TXT;1
deleted (0 blocks)
%PURGE-I-TOTAL, 4 files deleted (0 blocks)
Images Affected: [SYSEXE]DELETE.EXE
