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 (patch) kit exists for Linker on OpenVMS AXP V1.0.  This kit
    addresses the following problems:
    
      o  An application program may fail with an ACCVIO error when
         attempting to access an element in a FORTRAN common block that
         is located in a shareable image.  This problem is caused by an
         invalid address reference generated by some GEM-based compilers.
    
         NOTE:  None of the shareable images shipped with OpenVMS AXP
                contain FORTRAN common blocks.
    
    
    RELATED ARTICLES:
    
    Detailed articles describing the problems listed above may exist in
    the OPENVMS_AXP database.  To view these articles, open the
    appropriate product database and perform a query using the search
    string 'CSCPAT_2000'.
    
    
    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

    INSTALLATION NOTES:
    
    The system/cluster does not need to be rebooted after this kit is
    installed.  However, after applying the patch, the Install utility
    should be used to associate the known image with the new version of
    the image file by using the following command:
    
      $ INSTALL REPLACE SYS$COMMON:[SYSEXE]LINK.EXE
