I applied VMS732_UPDATE-V0500, rebooted and then applied the remaining 8 patches to bring it current. I had all the updates in one directory and chose the "All products listed above" option. It's at 90% done and now doing nothing:
Execution phase starting ...
The following products will be installed to destinations:
DEC AXPVMS DWMOTIF_ECO02 V1.3-1 DISK$ALPHASYS:[VMS$COMMON.]

Read through UAF patch release notes, no special mention of anything to heed before installing the patch.
Anyone have an idea what's going on here?
Hopefully someone can answer in the next two hours before I ctl-y it and shut my laptop off to go home.
Cheers,
Art

Re: Patching v7.3-2 process "hangs" ...
just to make sure: is that a typo?
You are updating your >> 7.2-2 << environment with >> 7.3-2 << patches?
It would surprise me if that would work!
Proost.
Have one on me.

Give me a bit of credit!! ;-)
Anything I can glean from ANALYZE/SYSTEM while it's "hung"?

Re: Patching v7.3-2 process "hangs" ...
I rebooted and checked - the AUTHORIZE.EXE that VMS732_UAF was to replace had been done. PRODUCT SHOW HISTORY shows all 8 patches were installed.
Very strange. What might it have been waiting on?
Cheers,

Re: Patching v7.3-2 process "hangs" ...
Did you get into ANALYZE/SYSTEM and do a
SHOW PROC/in=
You might have found something there

Re: Patching v7.3-2 process "hangs" ...
Although the "main" process is doing nothing, some
of the work is done in a subprocess... the ACRTL
patch (which I have installed recently on 15 systems)
gets to 90% then sits there for a while.
If you find the subprocess you will find it is using
LIBRARIAN to update stuff -- the time taken to do
the job varies depending on process quotas.
There was a recent thread, don't recall if it was
here or on c.o.v. regarding this matter.
