      BLITZ TITLE: No Updates for TruCluster 1.4 only 1.4A

      INTENDED AUDIENCE: All                    PRIORITY LEVEL: 1
      (U.S./EUROPE/GIA)                         (1=TIME CRITICAL,

      =====================================================================


      INTRODUCTION: 
      Recently DIGITAL started shipping version 1.4A of the TruCluster product.
      This version contains an important patch for all systems that are
      using the MEMORY CHANNEL revision 11 (CCMAA-AA) boards.  Additionally,
      version 1.4A adds support for the AlphaServer 1000A.

      PROBLEM: 
      If you, or any of your customers, have CCMAA-AA MEMORY CHANNEL hardware,
      or are planning to have AlphaServer 1000A systems in a TruCluster
      Production Server or TruCluster MEMORY CHANNEL environment, you must
      upgrade all nodes to version 1.4A.

      Further, version 1.4A supersedes version 1.4 of the TruCluster product.
      All future patches will be for version 1.4a only.  This change does not
      affect patches for DECsafe ASE versions 1.2A and 1.3, and TruCluster
      version 1.0.

      RESOLUTION/WORKAROUND:
      Customers using version 1.4 TruCluster Available Server software are
      not required to upgrade to version 1.4A.  However, since no patches 
      will be issued for any TruCluster version 1.4 software, all customers
      should upgrade their software.
