1648.0. "What patches are required for demfa" by NETRIX::"[email protected]" (Steven Freke) Fri Apr 07 1995 07:40

Hello there
	I have a customer who has a DEMFA in a 6000-620. 
All machines are clustered and are running VMS5.5-2.
what patches does he require in order for them to work. He was told that he 
needed CSCPAT_0511
	CSCPAT_0606 V1.0 V3.6
	CSCSCPAT_1081 V1.3
	CPAT_1079 V1.0
What he wantsto know is does he require any more. Any help would be appreciated.

	Steven

    Hello,
    
    0511 for LAT is a good idea.
    0606 for the latest DEMFA is a real good idea.
    1079/1081 deal with mixed VAX/AXP issues on the VAX side.
    
    Also remember to set LRPSIZE up to 4541, since it's V5.5-2, and if you
    want DECnet to use large FDDI packets, increase the MFA-0 line buffer
    size from 1498 (ethernet) up to 4468 bytes.
    
    Also monitor the LRP pool for expansion after the above changes have
    been implemented, and keep current=initial packets for best
    performance. 
    
    Good Day,
    John Sobecki
