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 SDA on OpenVMS Alpha V6.2 through V6.2-1H3.
    
    
    Problems Addressed in ALPSDA03_062:
    
      o  The   ALPSDA02_062   remedial   kit    required    that    the
         ALPCLUSIO01_062  kit  be  installed.   If  the  user  tried to
         install the ALPSDA02_062 kit on a system  that  had  both  the
         ALPCLUSIO01_062 and OpenVMS Alpha Y2K remedial kits installed,
         the   ALPSDA02_062   kit   did   not   recognize   that    the
         ALPCLUSIO01_062  kit  had  been  installed.   This  caused the
         ALPSDA02_062 installation to fail.
    
         There are no new ECO problem corrections in this kit.  If  you
         have  installed the ALPSDA02_062 remedial kit, you do not need
         to install the ALPSDA03_062 remedial kit.
    
    
    Problems Addressed in ALPSDA02_062:
    
      o  If a system is upgraded to V6.2 from V6.1, the KITINSTAL.COM
         procedure in kits that require the ALPCLUSIO01 remedial kit
         to be installed first, did not properly verify that the
         ALPCLUSIO01_062 remedial kit had been installed.
    
    
    Problems Addressed in ALPSDA01_062:
    
      o  SDA does not handle relocatable global (non-universal) symbols
         correctly if they are in resident images.
