OpenVMS Software Installation Release Notes
2.2 Installation and Upgrade Information Specific to Alpha
If you are selectively upgrading nodes, you should comment
out the "TO_BE_STARTED" logical name definitions in the
SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGICALS.COM file and the invocation of Advanced
Server startup in the SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM file on any
remaining OpenVMS V7.2-1 nodes in the cluster, as described in step 6.
12. Restart the Advanced Server, COM for OpenVMS and any other applications
that use Registry on the upgraded nodes. If you are using Advanced Server,
but not COM for OpenVMS, you will also have to start the ACME Server
using the command file:
$ @SYS$STARTUP:NTA$STARTUP_NT_ACME
2.2.3 CONFIGURE Process Replaced by QIO$CONFIGURE Process
V7.3
The CONFIGURE process is one phase of the system startup procedure, which
is controlled by SYS$SYSTEM:STARTUP.COM. Starting with OpenVMS Version
7.3, the QIO$CONFIGURE process replaces the CONFIGURE process. The
QIO$CONFIGURE process contains the CONFIGURE process and other software
specific to QIOserver. If you have included the CONFIGURE process in a
command procedure, you must change its name to QIO$CONFIGURE.
For more information about SYS$SYSTEM:STARTUP.COM and the role of
the QIO$CONFIGURE process in system startup, see the OpenVMS System
Manager’s Manual.
2.2.4 Java™ 2 SDK v 1.2.2-1 Is Incompatible with OpenVMS Version 7.3
V7.3
Due to contractual agreements with Adobe Systems Incorporated, Compaq has
removed the Display PostScript files and libraries from the Compaq DECwindows
Motif for OpenVMS V1.2-6 software. Consequently, OpenVMS Alpha Version 7.3
does not include the files necessary to run a Java application with a GUI using
the Java Software Development Kit (J2SDK) v 1.2.2-1.
The restriction applies only to the Java 2 SDK v 1.2.2-1 release. The Java
Development Kit (JDK) version 1.1 as well as all Java 2 SDK releases subsequent
to Java 2 SDK v 1.2.2-1 are not dependent on the Adobe Display PostScript
software or its libraries.
Note that the Java 2 SDK v 1.2.2-3 is included on the Compaq OpenVMS
e-Business Infrastructure Package Version 1.1 CD–ROM.
2.2.5 Error When Upgrading Compaq TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS
V7.2
When upgrading a version of Compaq TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS Alpha that
is earlier than Version 5.0, you may encounter the following error:
%PCSI-I-PRCOUTPUT, output from subprocess follows ...
%LIBRAR-E-LOOKUPERR, error looking up UCX in
$4$DKA300:[SYS0.SYSCOMMON.][SYSHLP]SDA.HLB;1
-LBR-E-KEYNOTFND, key not found
%PCSI-E-EXERMVFAIL, product supplied EXECUTE REMOVE procedure failed
%PCSI-E-OPFAILED, operation failed
Terminating is strongly recommended.
Do you want to terminate? [YES]
