IMPORTANT NOTICE

The online distribution of OpenVMS and related product patches is being migrated to the HP ITRC (Information Technology Resource Center) patch distribution site. The new ITRC patch server will allow OpenVMS customers to take advantage of many enhanced features for patch searching and distribution.

Beginning August 1, 2003, OpenVMS and related Layered Product, publicly available patches will be available from the HP ITRC web site at

http://itrc.hp.com/service/patch/mainPage.do

The same patches will still be available from the existing patch server in Colorado Springs (http://www.support.compaq.com/patches/) through the end of October 2003, to give customers sufficient time to update their bookmarks and make the transition to the HP ITRC web site.

ECO kits will also be available by raw FTP from (ftp://ftp.itrc.hp.com/).

PLEASE UPDATE YOUR BOOKMARKS AND REGISTER ON THE NEW SITE NOW

Note: if you're having trouble connecting to the ITRC site, please delete any cookies for "itrc.hp.com" from your browser and try again. Report any difficulties with or suggestions to MrVMS

    ECO KIT SUMMARY:
    
    An ECO kit exists for Disk File Optimizer for OpenVMS V2.5 on OpenVMS
    VAX V5.5-2 through V7.2 and on OpenVMS Alpha V6.2 through V7.2-1.  This
    kit addresses the following problems:
    
      o  DFO goes into a loop while defragging a volume set consisting
         of two 4 digit volumes.
    
         Investigation
         -------------
         Irrespective of whether the first volume was a 4 digit or a
         3 digit volume, DFO would defrag the first volume in the
         volume set and then go into loop before defragging the second
         volume - if it was a 4-digit volume.
    
         The problem occurred only in case of the 2nd or 3rd... or nth,
         volume being 4 digit volumes.
    
    
      o  Filenames were not being displayed correctly by DFO's
         Monitor utility.  Names of files that were currently being
         defragged appeared as overlapping each other.
    
    
      o  The DFO Installation Verification Procedure (IVP) on
         OpenVMS 7.2 was failing.
    
    
      o  The scheduling database on an Alpha machine running OpenVMS
         V7.2 cannot be shared in case of a mixed platform cluster.
    
         Investigation
         ------------
         This should be viewed as a DFO restriction.
    
         As DFO supports HFS (Heterogeneous File System) features
         that are functional only in VMS 7.2 Alpha, records that are
         populated via a 7.2 system cannot be viewed from cluster
         members that do not support HFS and vice-versa.
    
    
    RELATED ARTICLES:
    
    Detailed articles describing the problems listed above may exist in
    the OPENVMS database.  To view these articles, open the appropriate
    product database and perform a query using either of the following
    search strings: 'DFGE01025' or 'DFG'.
      
    
    ECO KIT ORDERING INSTRUCTIONS:
    
    If after an evaluation you wish to obtain this kit, request it
    electronically using the appropriate Advanced Electronic Services
    (AES) Service Tool.  If you are not familiar with how to request
    kits electronically, open the DIA, WIS or DSNLINK database and
    review the article entitled:
    
         [AES] How To Electronically Request ECO Kits Using Service Tools
    
    
    INSTALLATION NOTES:
    
    Invoke the VMSINSTAL procedure using the following command:
    
      @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL saveset-name device-name OPTIONS N
    
    Where:
    
    "saveset-name" is the installation name for the component.  For this
    Disk File Optimizer kit, use the following:
    
      DFGE01025
    
    "device-name" is the name of the device on which you plan to mount
    the media, for example, MUA0:. It is not necessary to use the console
    drive for this installation.
    
    However, if you use the console drive, replace any media you remove
    when the installation is complete.
    
    "OPTIONS N" indicates you want to see the release notes.  If you do
    not include this parameter, VMSINSTAL does not ask you about the release
    notes.
    
    Review the release notes before proceeding with the installation as they
    could contain additional installation information.
    
    For more details consult the "COMPAQ Disk File Optimizer for OpenVMS
    Installation Guide."
    
    
    The system/cluster does not need to be rebooted after this kit is
    installed.  However, the Disk File Optimizer for OpenVMS should be
    shutdown and restarted in order for all kit changes to take effect.
