Re: Patch missing???
which page and version are you referring to?
I can find the kit on both the Alpha 7.3-2 and Alpha 8.3 pages - just look down below the rating 3 items!!!
On the 7.3-2 page when browsing all patches, it runs up below 3 MQ patches and just above the RTR patch.

Re: Patch missing???
I'd expect this patch to be rated "1: To be installed by all customers." The re-release was done to stretch the importance of the patch:
[quote]
OpenVMS has received feedback from customers that the release of the recent SMGRTL patch kits did not make it clear that these kits corrected critical security issues and did not properly convey the need to install the kits as soon as possible.
[/quote]
So the patch was renamed, but setting the appropiate rating seems to have been forgotten, so it's actually not-rated.
For such an important patch, I think it contradicting.

SolutionAfter BMQ V5.0 RP37 for AXP
Before NEMO (Alpha V8.3) qualified SLS V29J ECO02.
It is indeed crazy that it should appear right down there, instead of being at the top of the lists.

Re: Patch missing???
it *WAS* rated INSTALL_1 (see ftp://ftp.itrc.hp.com/openvms_patches/alpha/V8.3/.VMS83A_SMGRTL-V0100.txt ); now it's rated
MUP : Must be installed by all customers.
Too bad that the Web interface doesn't know about MUPs...
cu,
Martin

Re: Patch missing???
Someone forgot about that, I think.
There was a MUP when 8.3 was just out.
Rated "1" if my memory serves me well.
Shouldn't be that hard...

Re: Patch missing???
Ian: Matter to taste. AFAIK the FTP site doesn't make a distinction in rating either.
I'll put it into the feedback area ;)
