ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for DUDRIVER/TUDRIVER on OpenVMS VAX V5.5-2, V5.5-2H4,
and V5.5-2HF. This kit addresses the following problems:
Problems addressed in the VAXDRIV12_U2055 Kit:
o DUDRIVER does not FLUSH the pending queue of SHADOWING, HBR and
served IOs when connection failure routines are entered. This
causes a system/cluster hang.
Problems addressed in the VAXDRIV11_U2055 Kit:
o These OpenVMS VAX V5.5-2 problem corrections were included in
the multi-version VAXDRIV04_070 remedial kit. They are now
being issued as a V5.5-2 only remedial kit.
There are no new problem corrections in this remedial kit.
Problems addressed in the VAXDRIV04_070 Kit:
o A PGFIPLHI system crash may occur when the controller is rebooted.
o A problem exists with HSJ/HSD30, 40 and 50 controllers where,
after an event that initiates Mount Verification, a packet
acknowledgment will fail to complete. The controller will
report that it is making progress on the command, but will
never finish. This causes all IO to the affected devices to
hang.
Problems addressed in the VAXDRIV02_070 Kit:
o A node may hang due to no quorum after losing its connection
to the quorum disk.
o DUDRIVER does not log IRP information.
