OpenVMS VAXMANA04_071 VAX V7.1 AUTOGEN ECO Summary
TITLE: OpenVMS VAXMANA04_071 VAX V7.1 AUTOGEN ECO Summary
New Kit Date : 12-MAR-2001
Modification Date: Not Applicable
Modification Type: Updated Kit Supersedes VAXMANA03_071
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 AUTOGEN on OpenVMS VAX V7.1. This kit addresses
the following problems:
PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN VAXMANA04_071 KIT:
o The previous kit VAXMANA03_071 was misssing 1 image,
AGEN$FEEDBACK.EXE, that was shipped with the VAXMANA02_071 ECO
kit.
Images Affected: AGEN$FEEDBACK.EXE
PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN VAXMANA03_071 KIT:
o The SYSMAN security profile is supposed to be identical on all
nodes in a cluster that uses the same security environment. In
some instances, however, SYSMAN uses the authorized privileges
from the UAF instead of the locally set privileges on some
nodes.
Images Affected: [SYSLIB]SMI$SHR.EXE
Problems Addressed in the VAXMANA02_071 Kit:
o The SYSMAN security profile is supposed to be identical on all
nodes in a cluster that use the same security environment.
However, SYSMAN could use the authorize privileges from the
UAF, instead of the locally set privileges on some nodes.
For example, for a cluster named CLUSTER, node NODE1 should
have the same privilege settings as another node in the
cluster, NODE2.

Problems Addressed in the VAXMANA01_071 Kit:
o A 6000-class VAX machine that booted off a DSSI disk kept
getting into the DOSD code. The system then concluded that
the configuration could not support DOSD and terminated at
TESTFILES.
Member disks of a shadowed boot disk were tested for DOSD
support, before the configuration was tested for support
eligibility. The problem appeared to be complicated more
because DUMPFILE_DEVICE was defined to the string
"SYS$SYSDEVICE:".

No reboot is necessary after successful installation of the kit.
