Overall WEBES Release Notes

1.6 WEBES Known Issues

Rev. 9/8/06

Web-Based Enterprise Services    Release Notes    1–25

 
Do you want to continue? [NO] YES 

The messages appear because of a new feature that allows OpenVMS patches to be removed. 
You only see these messages if you have installed the new OpenVMS PCSI patch that adds the 
feature (or you are running a newer version of OpenVMS that includes the feature), and you 
have installed OpenVMS patches that use the feature. 

The new feature has a limitation making it impossible to preserve patch recovery data when a 
product such as WEBES is installed or uninstalled, because installing or uninstalling WEBES 
in an operation not involving patches that alters the product database. 

Prior to the addition of the feature, OpenVMS patches could not be removed. Nevertheless, 
note that installing WEBES will prevent you from using the new feature to remove any 
OpenVMS patches listed. Otherwise, you can safely ignore the messages and continue with 
WEBES installation. 

1.6.4.6 Upgrade Requires Same Node as Install 

Upgrades require that you run the WEBES installer ( @webes_install ) only on the same 
cluster node from which you originally installed WEBES. The upgrade section in the WEBES 
Installation Guide
 contains instructions for determining which node is the original. 

1.6.4.7 Alternate Boot Start and Stop Methods 

Normally, installing WEBES sets up VMS system logicals required for proper WEBES 
operation, and optionally sets up the WCCProxy and DESTA Director processes to start 
shortly after booting, and to shut down as part of the site-specific shutdown process. The 
WEBES installer uses the VMS facility "MCR SYSMAN STARTUP" for this setup. 

If you prefer to control the startup and shutdown yourself, see the updated WEBES Installation 
Guide
, which includes new post-installation guidelines for tailoring the startup and shutdown 
process. 

1.6.4.8 Cannot Get SMTP Notification on OpenVMS

If there is a problem in the SMTP configuration of an OpenVMS system, WEBES SMTP 
email notification may not work, even if regular SMTP email on the system appears to be 
working. You can increase the verbosity of the SMTP conversation to help diagnose the 
problem by following the procedures below.

WEBES calls Java API code to send SMTP email. On OpenVMS, the Java API uses the 
SMTP receiver, which may be different from how other SMTP email is handled on the 
OpenVMS system.
