653.0. "ALPSYS03_062, for V6.2-1H3?" by HGOSPS::MICKWIDLAM () Wed May 28 1997 03:50

    Hi all,
    
    There is a patch in Alpha VMS: ALPSYS03_062. This patch fixed some
    problem related to IO_ROUTINES in V6.1 and V6.2-1H1, but not for
    V6.2-1H2 and V6.2-1H3. Is there any patch exist which fix similar
    problem in V6.2-1H2 and V6.2-1H3? Or the problem fixed by this patch
    won't happen in V6.2-1H2 and V6.2-1H3?
    
    Thanks
    Mickwid.

   If the patch applies to V6.2-1H2 and -1H3, then the ECO text needs
   to be updated.  If the problem was resolved in -1H2 and later and
   the ECO text does not indicate this, then the ECO text needs to be
   updated.  If the ECO does not apply to -1H2 or -1H3 and the problem
   still exists in these releases, then a new (or an updated) ECO kit
   is needed.

   In any of these cases, log an IPMT.

    Then anyone know if this patch can be apply to -1H3? Or someone may
    need to update the ECO text? I want to know more before IPMT.
    
    Thanks and regards,
    Mickwid.

To know more you have to IPMT unless you get lucky and have the person 
responsible for the patch see this note and want to comment.  Notes is not 
an official support mechanism.

653.4These IPMTs are routed to the ECO maintainers...XDELTA::HOFFMANSteve, OpenVMS EngineeringWed May 28 1997 14:0415

   I realize that you would like to better understand the problem.

   The folks that do understand which component of the ECO -- either
   the kit or the ECO text -- will need to be updated are the same
   folks that will receive the IPMT.  

   These folks might immediately know the answer to this, or they might
   have to research the question to determine the answer.  But in either
   case, the IPMT is the most expeditious path to getting your customer
   an answer, and to getting the ECO kit (or the ECO text) updated...
