1272.0. "Monitor hangs on VMS V7.0 with ECO 2." by UTRTSC::WIJKAMP (One day, you won't drink beer, you'll drink GROLSCH) Thu Apr 18 1996 11:39

    
    
    Hello,
    
    
    I understand from the release-notes from the ECO2 kit, that 
    OpenVMS V7.0 AXP is (not jet officialy) supported for this ECO.
    
    We installed it anyway.
    The monitor 5 seconds hang problem, is still there in V7.0.
    
    I want to bring this to your attention. Should I IPMT This???
    
    Thanks for your reaction,

    I'm not surprised as this is an SMG problem and there were different
    fixes for 6.1 and 6.2. You will find that the problem is fixed in 6.1 and 
    6.2

1272.3Any update on V7.0/Monitor/HangsSSDEVO::EKHOLMGreg - party today, tomorrow we die! (Cluster Adjuster)Thu Oct 31 1996 14:1620
    
    	Any update on this. We are being forced to move from VCS to
    	PCM and have several users who "LOVE" the monitor command.
    
    	This topic has not been updated lately.
    
    	What's happening?

    	P.S. looking at the problem, We've seen the monitor command hang
    	after about 6 seconds. We've tried to connect to the PCM system
    	via set host, and connect using LAT. The problem appears to be
    	when the process goes from LEF or CUR into HIB state. It never
    	returns from the HIB state.
    
    	Any input would be more than we have had here since APRIL of 1996.

    This problem is not caused by version 7.0 of VMS. This problem was
    fixed and kitted into what was to become ECO3 of PCM. Then the product
    was sold to CA and ECO3 never got through the Q&A process because it
    has not been determined what that process is. Many sites are using the
    kit and you may copy it from
    
    ALEXWS::DISK$USER1:[PUBLIC.PCM.ECO3]
    
    Note, that there are problems with V1.6 of PCM when running on V7.0
    of OpenVMS. These problems will not be addressed until the next
    version of PCM which is planned for Beta test in December. This
    version will be a maintenance release and will not include any  major
    new functionality. However, one of the goals is to support current
    operating system versions.

    Then we'll have to analyze and refix the problem on V7.0. In V6.1 and 
    V6.2 the problem is fixed by ECO 3. As stated in -2, we won't have
    a V7.* qualified version until V1.7. You woul dhave to downgrade you
    PCM engine to 6.2. I know thats a tall order but it's either do that or
    wait until V1.7.
