Manuals:            425265-003 ASAP Extension Manual

Installation Considerations:

   Subsystem interruption required

   - Perform these pre-installation steps:

     1. If you are migrating from release 1 of ASAPX, read the
        comments and examples on release 1 to release 2 migration in
        the ASAP Extension Manual and perform the tasks described
        there.

     2. Ensure that requirements for using this SPR are met (see
        Req't PVUs, Req'd HW, and Req'd SW).

     3. Review the IPSetup User Guide (file USRGUIDE.PDF in the NSK_SW
        subdirectory on the ASAPX CD). IPSetup is provided on the CD
        to facilitate installation of Independent Products. Use Adobe
        Acrobat Reader (available on the CD) to read or print the
        IPSetup User Guide.

     4. Decide whether you will use DSM/SCM to move the SPR's files to
        the Installation Subvolumes (ISVs) after they are placed on
        the NonStop server.  Using DSM/SCM is optional, but
        recommended when DSM/SCM is available.

   - Perform these installation-related steps:

     1. Run IPSetup to place (move files from the CD to the NonStop
        server) and optionally install (move files to correct ISVs)
        this SPR. If TCP/IP and FTP are unavailable, or if you have
        problems with automatic file placement, follow the
        instructions in the IPSetup User's Guide section "Manual
        Software Placement Using the IPSetup TACL Program" to manually
        place the files.

     2. If you are using DSM/SCM to install this SPR:
        - COPY the SPR to a new revision of the software configuration
          you want to update.
        - BUILD and APPLY the configuration revision.
        - Run ZPHIRNM to perform the RENAME step.

   - Perform these post-installation steps:

     1. Run ASAP Extension INSTALL to update the ASAPX subsystem:

        a.  TACL 1 > VOLUME $<ISV-VOLUME>.ZASAPX
        b.  TACL 2 > RUN INSTALL
        c.  Fill in the source and destination subvolumes. To install
            to a remote node, fully qualify the destination subvolume
            name. For example, \remote.$system.system.

New Features:

 1.  [AAE] ASAPX no longer deactivates the Status attribute for the
     first interval to allow immediate detection of domains
     reporting a Status alert.  All other attributes, which could
     be incomplete for the first interval, remain deactivated
     until the second interval when completeness of the sample
     can be assured.

     (SOLN ??-??????-????)

Problems Corrected:

  1. [AAE]
     SYMPTOMS:  Duplicate domains in domain table.
     CONDITIONS:  When a process registered multiple domains then
       its CPU failed and it restarted in another CPU but did not
       re-register all its domains before the original CPU was
       reloaded, then ASAP was restarted before all the original
       domains were re-registered in the second CPU.
     LIKELIHOOD:  Unlikely
     FIX-INFO:  ASAPXMON no longer does an automatic cleanup of
       all domains when it finds a process is running in another
       processor at restart time.

     (SOLN 10-040412-5021)

  2. [AAE]
     SYMPTOMS:  Error 10 messages due to ASAPXMON writing a
       duplicate record to the ASAP collector.
     CONDITIONS:  When the exact number of detail domains happened
       to be the exact number that would fit into a reply buffer,
       and when aggregate domains were also being computed.
     LIKELIHOOD:  Unlikely
     FIX-INFO:  ASAPX no longer repeats the last detail domain
       in the aggregate domain buffer.

     (SOLN 10-040412-5020)

Known Problems Remaining:

  None.
