6438.0. "OpenVMS V7.0???" by SCASS1::GALVIN (The Energizer Bunny's Trainer...) Wed Apr 03 1996 20:33

    		Has Anyone Upgraded to OpenVMS V7.0???
    
    I have a client that is running EMS V2.4 on OpenVMS/VAX V6.2, with
    patches... The new OpenVMS is here and I'm anxious to get my teeth into
    it...
    
    Has anyone done it yet?  I can handle the CMA libraries out of whack,
    and I'm now using homegrown alarms, by IMPM, without DETMCC, just in
    case...
    
    Anyone else know of any blatant restrictions, other than... "we don't
    support it...?" 8^)
    
    "still keepin' it afloat and waiting for my TeMIP training to be
    approved..."

6438.1Should work but not really sure !DSVB03::TABONETue Apr 09 1996 15:019
Hi Mic,

Take care, DECmcc is not supported on VAX/OpenVMS 7.0.
But, I think the patches you tested for VAX/VMS V6.2 should work
also for V7.0. You can try them if you want.
Don't be too anxious you are used to this kind of problems, isn't it ? 

Best regards,

6438.2works for me... YIPPEEEEEE!SCASS1::GALVINThe Energizer Bunny's Trainer...Tue Apr 16 1996 23:5917
    Phillipe,
    
    Hello old friend!  I've upgraded to OpenVMS V7.0 and for once... drum
    roll please....tah-dah, MCC has gone unscathed...  The only problem I
    had was with OpenVMS, I had to upgrade UCX, but that was trivial.
    
    I'm zooming the display from a VAX4705A to an Alpha/Unix workstation
    and running lots of alarms I've written using the IMPM.  Most alarms
    are either OSI or SNMP entities...
    
    I've pointed a noter your way whose having problems with V1.3 and
    OSI...
    
    cheers,

6438.3Good news!DSVB03::TABONEWed Apr 17 1996 11:148
Hi Mic,

I'm glad to see MCC working well on OpenVMS V7.0.
Have you tested the 2 patches or only one ?  In the
second case, which one ?

Best regards,

    Phillippe,
    
    The patch I applied is for MCC_KERNEL_SHR.EXE; offhand I've forgotten
    what the other patch was?  This is the one that helped me with the CMA
    libraries problem, I believe...?
    
    Hope this helps...
