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 OpenVMS/Hanzi V7.2 on OpenVMS Alpha V7.2-1H1.
This kit addresses the following problems:
o This kit is installed on Compaq AlphaServer GS160 systems
running the Compaq OpenVMS/Hanzi Alpha Version 7.2 with Compaq
OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.2-1H1. This provides Compaq Open VMS/Hanzi
Alpha support for the following new functionality:
+ Hard partitions on Compaq AlphaServer GS160 systems
+ Compaq OpenVMS Galaxy configuration on Compaq AlphaServer
GS160 systems
+ Compaq OpenVMS Resource Affinity Domain (RAD) support for
applications
+ Fibre Channel OpenVMS Cluster shared storage interconnect
support for Compaq OpenVMS Galaxy configurations
+ A Spinlock Trace Utility
+ Record Management Service locking enhancements
o In the Compaq OpenVMS/Hanzi HMAIL utility, starting with Version
7.0, if a user attempts to forward a foreign file, the FORWARD
command fails and the user is returned to the HMAIL> prompt.
No message of any kind is displayed. HMAIL has been modified to
correctly allow forwarding of foreign files.
In addition, Compaq OpenVMS/Hanzi HMAIL expands KEYNODEF to
include keys F6 through F14 as mentioned in HMAIL>HELP DEFINE
Parameters.
Image(s) Affected:
[HSYEXE]HMAIL.EXE
[SYSLIB]HMAILSHR.EXE
[SYSLIB]HMAILSHRP.EXE
[SYSMSG.HANzi]HMAILMSG.EXE
o The Compaq OpenVMS Registry introduced a new DCL command in
Compaq OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.2-1, SHOW SERVER, to show the
current status of the Compaq OpenVMS Registry on a specified
node. As a result, for Compaq OpenVMS/Hanzi Alpha Version 7.2
running on Compaq OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.2-1, the SHOW utility
only displayed the message number instead of the message if
users use the "SHOW SERVER" command to get the status of the
server.
In addition, Compaq OpenVMS Alpha extends all physical memory up
to 76GB in Compaq OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.2-1H1. All physical
memory page count fields in SHOW MEMORY are required to be
widened. Also, the qualifier /RAD has been added into SHOW
PROCESS to display hard affinity domain. To support these new
functions, the CLIUTLMSG.EXE image has been updated.
Image(s) Affected:
[SYSMSG]CLIUTLMSG.EXE
[SYSMSG.HANZI]CLIUTLMSG.EXE
o This new DCL provides a fix to a problem in UNSTACK when this
command is used to "unstack" back to procedure level zero in
BATCH mode. Also, a new lexical for RAD SYI items is introduced
in Compaq OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.2-1H1. Compaq OpenVMS/Hanzi
DCL has been enhanced to support this feature.
Image(s) Affected: [SYSEXE]DCL.EXE
INSTALLATION NOTES:
The images in this kit will not take effect until the system is
