Patch: VMS732_LAN-V0200

[Doug Phillips]

AlphaServer 1000A 5/300 running OpenVMS V7.2-1

Preparing to upgrade to 7.3-2, downloaded all patches, all are okay except with this one I get (will wrap):

$ product list vms732_lan/version=v2.0
%PCSI-E-PDFERR, error in processing product description file
ALPHA1$DKA300:[PATCH]DEC-AXPVMS-VMS732_LAN-V0200--4.PCSI;1

%PCSI-E-PROCTERM, processing terminated due to previous error
%PCSI-E-S_OPFAIL, operation failed
%PCSIUI-E-ABORT, operation terminated due to an unrecoverable
error condition
$

Anyone have any input on this error? Must I wait until after the 7.3-2 upgrade to list this patch? All of the other 9 patches listed okay and I was able to extract their release notes.

Can't call the 800 number or use the Software Call Manager web page because I only have the media update service & RTC licence.

And, if Walter B. is listening, there is no >>"software calls" hyperlink under the "collaborate" category<< on the Maintenance & Support main menu that I get.

Hello Doug,

from the release notes for this patch:

4 KIT DEPENDENCIES:

4.1 The following remedial kit(s), or later, must be installed
BEFORE installation of this, or any required kit:


- VMS732_PCSI-V0100

So, after the uprade and after applying the PCSI patch your command will work ;-)

Greetings, Martin

Thanks Martin. I suspected as much.:-)
