plan coll=poll/status on VMS V8.3 Alpha gives error, because TDC must be used for collection.

Hello,

we newly installed a test system with VMS V8.3 Alpha, and then installed ECP 5.6. Only the analyzer is installed because TDC does the collection under V8.3.

But the command plan coll=poll/status is still available. Its gives the error:

%DCL-W-ACTIMAGE, error activating image ECP$COLLECT
-CLI-E-IMAGEFNF, image file not found DSA1:[SYS1.SYSCOMMON.][SYSEXE]ECP$COLLECT.EXE;

which makes sense because only the analyzer and not the collector of ECP has been installed.

Still I doubt: is this a bug or a feature? Did ECP wrongly update the DCL tables?

Seems to be a 'feature', the kit contains only one .CLD file.

Oke. Bug or feature. No big deal.
Case closed.
