Conference iosg::all-in-1_v30

    Try typing VERSION while in ALL-IN-1.

Handy little function call!

The result is ALL-IN-1 2.4 BL8 27-APR-1990 WPSPLUS 4.0

Can I make the assumption that version 2.4-1 would appear as such? Also did 2.4-1
come as an update kit, and was it superceded by the 2.4A kit?

Thanx, Neil

    I'm not about to get into the numbering scheme for ALL-IN-1 patches
    for v2.4 as it's very confusing and you certainly can't make
    assumptions about what supersedes what as some of them used the same
    letter/number for identification.
    
    The 'supported' way to check what patches are on your system is
    to $TYPE the file A1PATCH$CONFIGURATION.DAT in OA$BUILD_SHARE.
    (<VERSION is not a good idea as only 1 of the 7 patches changes this)
    
    The 'patches' appear as K numbers K601 to K605
    The WPS-PLUS v4 option appears as A001
                                     
    If you don't have K604 or K605 in this list you will want to obtain
    soon.

Ok, let me put it this way. If we go to K605, is my customer's configuration
supported after he goes to VMS 5.5-1?

    Hello Neil,
    
    According to 6.5 even 2.3 is certified on VMS 5.5-1.
    
    A would suggest installing CSCPAT_1012. Contains
    additional fixing to q-manager.

    The July CD seems to have two new entries for ALL-IN-1:
    

******************************
SYS$SYSDEVICE:[SYSPUBLIC]CDMASTER_INDEX.TXT;6

        ALL-IN-1 V2.4 PATCH        2.4E   AAAAA  New      1   [A1024PAT022]

        ALL-IN-1 V2.4 UPDATE       2.4A   AAAAB  New      1   [A1024SUS020]

    
    I guess one would have to do some reading to find out which one is the
    latest.  No B-D?  I used to understand this stuff.
    
    Ben

    Ben,

CDMASTER_INDEX.TXT info does not correct.

What about...
      
V2.4     The original ALL-IN-1 IOS release.           
V2.4A    The MAILbus V3.1 Mandatory Update and ALL-IN-1 v2.4.
V2.4B    ALL-IN-1 V2.4 Patch Kit (K601) A1024PAT010
V2.4C    ALL-IN-1 V2.4 Patch Kit (K602) A1024PAT011
V2.4D    ALL-IN-1 V2.4 Patch Kit (K603) A1024SUS020              
V2.4 UPD ALL-IN-1 V2.4 Update (K603 and WPS-PLUS V4) 
V2.4E    ALL-IN-1 V2.4 Patch Kit (K604) A1024PAT021
V2.4E    ALL-IN-1 V2.4 Patch Kit (K605) A1024PAT022 (full replacement of K604)

    Re .last two,                                                
    
    Didn't I say in an earlier note that noone human could possible
    understand this stuff (:==:) - the customers certainly don't.
    
    As well as Jan's two v2.4E there are actually also two v2.4A things
    also.
    
    P.S trick question - what is A001?
    
    Regards,

Hello all,

I would say: stick to the saveset names. A1024SUS020 and A1024PAT022
which are on the CD are all you need to get a fully patch system.
Substract the release notes. They will tell you the true story.
The rest is obsolete. 

The version number of a PAT tells you which SUS you need. A SUS
contains all PAT's of a lower version.

In Holland we call this an "Ezelsbruggetje". Perhaps Andrew can 
ask Simon what the English translations is.

A001 = V2.40 = the WPS-PLUS OPTION, but tell me what is A002 ?
I have a cold pack of Hoegaarden Grand Cru for the winner.

Regards,

Jan

    Jan,
    
    A002 is TCP the TeamLinks Connection Package.
    
    You can obtain my mailing address for that beer offline (:==:)

    From the release notes it appears that the A1024PAT022 is K604 and
    K605.  The cover letter has not been updated, although somebody made a
    copy of it and called it COVER_LETTER2 or something.  A listing of the
    savesets seems to confirm the release notes.  This agrees with what Jan
    says in .11. Install A1024SUS020 then A1024PAT022. 
    
    Nowhere in any of the documentation for these kits is there a string
    A002.
