Beware of VMS83A_RMS V8.0 Patch
It uses an undefined DCL Symbol resulting in an emtpy VMS version string after reboot, which may lead to interesting effects... :-)
So if you install this patch, be sure to set the correct VMS version before rebooting, e.g.:
Excerpt from PCSI_POSTINSTALl.COM:
$ os_version = "V8.3"
$ Current_default = F$ENVIRONMENT ("DEFAULT")
$ ww1 = "write work_1"
$ open/write work_1 post_setsysver.com
$ ww1 "$ set default SYS$COMMON:[SYS$LDR]"
$ ww1 "$ run sysver"
$! ww1 "REPLACE ""''new_version'""
$! replace new_version with os_version
$ ww1 "REPLACE ""''os_version'""
$ ww1 "write"
$ ww1 "exit"
$ ww1 "$ exit"

Re: Beware of VMS83A_RMS V8.0 Patch
Thanks for reporting this here and hopefully a new RMS patch will be along shortly. Makes me wonder about the testing of this patch kit :-(
Purely Personal Opinion

Re: Beware of VMS83A_RMS V8.0 Patch
The VMS83A_RMS-V0800 release that was done earlier today has been cancelled.
The kit has been pulled back so that we can include one more change. The kit will be re-released later next week.
