| 3173.1 | Originally V3.3A supprted only on V5.5-2, V6.0 | VELI::KORKKO | Veli K�rkk� @FNO, 879-5512 | Thu Feb 27 1997 20:05 | 7 |
| There should not really be any reason to user V3.3 at all.
Instead recommend using V3.3A which appear to work just fine on
OpenVMS V6.2. According to SPD they are supported on OpenVMS
V5.5-2 and V6.0 however.
There is note in this conference about supported VMS versions
though.

| 3173.2 | see 103.1 | VELI::KORKKO | Veli K�rkk� @FNO, 879-5512 | Thu Feb 27 1997 20:07 | 3 |
| According to 103.1 there would not be support on V6.2...

| Is VMS V6.1 still supported?!
I'd be very surprised if MR wasn't supported on V6.2 (but V7 may be a
different story). As Veli says, V3.3A is the supported MR version.

| MR etc are supported on VMS V6.2
Support on VMS V7.* is still up in the air (contact Dave Holt @REO)

| 3173.5 | got it installed and configured on V7.1 | VELI::KORKKO | Veli K�rkk� @FNO, 879-5512 | Sat Mar 15 1997 17:32 | 33 |
| I've succesfully installed MR V3.3A, MRGATE V3.3A plus MRX V2.3
on my VAXstation 3100-M38 running OpenVMS V7.1 plus DECnet/OSI
V7.1.
Getting MRX installed was the most difficult part. After number
of pilot errors (like wrong license, OSAK not installed etc) I
finally got MRX installed with using
$ @sys$update:vmsinstall mrx ... options RSP=A
and modifying KITINSTAL.COM as follows:
************
File SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSUPD.MRX023]KITINSTAL.COM;2
788 $! decnet_ver = f$integer(decnet_ver)
789 $ if decnet_ver .ges. "00050100" then goto osicheck_done
790 $ mrx$install_ok = false !failed
******
File SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSUPD.MRX023]KITINSTAL.COM;1
788 $ decnet_ver = f$integer(decnet_ver)
789 $ if decnet_ver .ge. 50100 then goto osicheck_done
790 $ mrx$install_ok = false !failed
************
here decnet_ver=f$getsyi("DECNET_VERSION") happens to 00050C00
on OpenVMS V7.1/DECnet/OSI V7.1 and the original code would
convert it to integer, i.e 0 and complain about DECnet/OSI V5.5
or later not being installed.
I have to point out that I have not yet tried to do anything
with my brand new MR/MRG/MRX environment.

| Veli,
We appreciate the feedback, but please do not advise anyone
(customers in particular) to go ahead and run the products
on OpenVMS V7.* based upon your apparent success.
The MB1 product set is not supported on VMS V7.* at this time,
and given the announced MB1 retirement plans, might never be...

| 3173.7 | will recommend upgrading to and staying on V6.2 | VELI::KORKKO | Veli K�rkk� @FNO, 879-5512 | Sun Mar 16 1997 19:56 | 7 |
| I would not advise upgrading to V7.1. Anyway, with our current
resources, I tend to be doing most (if not all) MR/MRX related
things in Finland nowadays. I intend to keep all customer
systems "supportable", my own systems are completely different
matter.
