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 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
