    Hallo,
    
    A customer installed PCM 1.6 on VMS 6.2
    
    One problem which he found is, that during installation there is only a
    question for a disk device, where PCM should be installed.
    
    there is no question for a directory structure, so when you have a
    directory structure ofther than default, you will run into problems,
    because the logfiles will not be converted:
    
    
    * Please specify the disk for Console Manager files [SYS$SYSDEVICE]:
    <CR>
    
    It costs a lot of time to rename the directories etc, to get the old
    structure back!!
    
    kind regards
    
    Volker

| Volker, This is because we only support our directory tree in the root directory of a disk. What if the customer were to define a logical pointing to the location they want the [CONSOLE] directory in and using this at install time? (Obviously they may have to define this logical with the correct attributes for it to work i.e /trans=(conc,term) etc). Cheers, Phil | |||||

|     Hallo,
    
    I have no difficulty with the installation on my system,
    but I see on most other products a question or a notification about
    the directory structure. 
    
    The only thing I ask for is a message for our customers who
    are not going the default way, may be  because of low disk_space etc.
    putting for instance the log files to another disk!
    Just a simple sentence!
    
    kind regards
    
    Volker
