                            SECTION 1


                           INTRODUCTION




Multics  Release  12.5  (MR12.5)  is  a  supplemental release and
assumes the prior installation of  either MR12.3 or MR12.4.  That
is, the library tapes of MR12.3, a free standing release, must be
installed prior to installation of MR12.5.  This release (MR12.5)
may also be installed if  MR12.4 has already been installed.  The
MR12.4 release  was a supplemental system  release dependent upon
the prior installation of MR12.3.

This release  installs all system changes included  in the MR12.4
release.   Descriptions of  the  MR12.4  release package  and its
corresponding installation instructions are  not included in this
document.  The  installer should refer to the  MR12.4 SRB/SIB for
descriptions  of the  system changes  made in  that release.  The
installation  of   MR12.5  does  not  require   the  installation
instructions for any previous release.

This  document  includes  descriptions  of  features  included in
Multics Release 12.5.  Both the SRB and the SIB are combined into
this document and instructions for installing MR12.5 are included
in Section 5.

Additional  documentation,  including  a  list  of  bugs fixed in
MR12.5, is provided with the  release tapes as printable segments
on the release tapes in the directory >doc>MR12.5.

Software Releases  prior to MR12.1 are no  longer supported.  All
sites  running  pre-MR12.3  software  are  strongly encouraged to
upgrade  to MR12.3  as soon   as possible,  then move  to MR12.5.
Corrections to critical problems against releases prior to MR12.3
will be considered on a case by case basis.


_S_I_T_E _S_U_P_P_O_R_T


System  Representatives  who  support  Multics  should  apply for
registration on  the SiteSA project maintained in  Calgary on the
ACTC Multics system.


Introduction                   1-1                        SRB12.5


The SiteSA project was created to allow sites to communicate with
Support  personnel  on  matters  of  site  support.   Only System
Representatives who support a Multics  site are authorized to use
the project.  They are authorized to use it only for site support
activities which require communication  of information to support
personnel.

SiteSAs   should   maintain   their   site's   info  segments  in
>udd>SiteSA>site_info (>udd>ssa>si).   Information on maintaining
these      segments     is      in     the      info     segment,
>udd>ssa>si>site_info.info.

In addition  to normal telephone and  Multics mail communications
with  support  personnel,  SiteSAs  are  encouraged  to  use  the
unusual_crash_log  forum meeting  to report  any unusual problems
encountered at  their site.  SiteSAs not familiar  with forum can
type "help  forum" for usage  information.  Forum is  a subsystem
somewhat like the mail system  in which an electronic meeting can
be held.  To invoke forum, type:

   forum >udd>ssa>sa_meeting>uclog

Type  ?  to  print a  list of  requests allowed  by forum.  Other
forum meetings of interest to SiteSAs are the following:

              PATHNAME                              SHORT NAME
     ---------------------------------------------  ----------

     >udd>ssa>sa_meeting>install_instructions       ii
     >udd>ssa>sa_meeting>hardware_problems          hwp
     >udd>ssa>sa_meeting>critical_fixes             fixes

We would appreciate that sites,  as they complete installation of
MR12.5,  enter  a  transaction  in  the install_instructions (ii)
forum meeting.  This will allow other  sites to see the amount of
exposure the release is receiving and to communicate any problems
encountered in the installation procedure.

Support also suggests, very strongly, that SiteSAs DO NOT attempt
to reproduce site  problems on ACTC which are known  to crash the
system at  their site, cause processors  to loop in ring  0, etc.
Such problems  should be reported via the  Trouble Report system,
and  will  be  verified  by  support  personnel using appropriate
resources, so that ACTC service is not interrupted unnecessarily.

Introduction                   1-3                        SRB12.5









                            SECTION 2


                        CONTENTS OF MR12.5







_A_N_S_W_E_R_I_N_G _S_E_R_V_I_C_E

A- 1. Updated   pnt_fs_util_.pl1  to    return  the   error  code
      error_table_$bad_file_name instead  of error_table_$badstar
      when the name supplied does not end in the "pnt" suffix.

A- 2. The entry point vacate_pdir_volume_ had a bad argument list
      when it  called sys_log_ to say "Specified  argument is not
      supported.".   The missing control  code has been  added to
      the call to sys_log_.

A- 3. Updated  act_ctl_  so  that   the  operator  shift  command
      correctly displays the next shift change time.

A- 4. Corrected   up_cdt_  to   not  take   pointer  faults  when
      installing a new  CDT that uses a new  multiplexor type for
      the  first time or  that changes the  line type of  a login
      channel.


_C_O_M_M_A_N_D_S


_N_o_n_-_P_r_i_v_i_l_e_g_e_d _C_o_m_m_a_n_d_s

B- 1. The  header  for  the  list_absentee_request  now  has  the
      correct  total for absentee  queue 1 if  the user does  not
      have s access to queue 0.

B- 2. The    dial_out   "wait"    request   now    supports   the
      "-inhibit_error" and "-no_inhibit_error" control arguments.

B- 3. The active function  call [mvp l -tt] has been  fixed so it
      no  longer fails  due to  insufficient stack  space on very
      large volume pools.


Contents of MR12.5             2-1                        SRB12.5


B- 4. The delete  command now works on the  forum extended object
      type (i.e.   dl foo.forum) as documented.   In the previous
      release,  entering "dl  foo.forum" would  produce a message
      stating that the operation was not allowed for a directory.
      Entering "dd foo.forum" informed  the user that "foo.forum"
      was a forum  meeting and that the "dl"  command should have
      been used instead of "dd".


_P_r_i_v_i_l_e_g_e_d _C_o_m_m_a_n_d_s

C- 1. The list_extra_personids command will  no longer abort when
      it is run more than once within the same process.  In prior
      releases, when  run a second time within  the same process,
      list_extra_personids   would  print  the   following  error
      message:  "conflict with file attribute...".

C- 2. The  set_special_password command  will now  query the user
      twice  for the  password by   default or  when the  -prompt
      control argument is given.

C- 3. Corrected the  spelling of the  AS log entry  generated for
      "Denied  send_admin_command  for  USER   in  ring  X"  from
      "sc_admin_comamnd_" to "sc_admin_command_".

C- 4. The  send_daemon_command  expects   the  channel  then  the
      User.Project    after    the    "login"    keyword    (i.e.
      send_daemon_command  login channel  User.Project).  If  the
      user reverses the order of  the arguments after the "login"
      keyword, it will now print:
           send_daemon_command:   Specified  control  argument is
           not accepted.
           Usage:  send_daemon_command login channel User.Project

C- 5. The as_who  command will now  correctly indicate a  ">" for
      those users whose grace time  has expired and are therefore
      subject to preemption.

C- 6. Corrected MR12.4 library  segments corrupted during tranfer
      from  the ACTC  system to  System-M for  integration.  This
      corrects  a  problem  with  using  the "send_admin_command"
      command with the -ntmail option.

C- 7. reconstruct_registry  will now properly  traverse backwards
      through  the journal chains  when rcprm journals  have been
      deleted by some means other than resetting.

C- 8. edit_proj will now allow the  deletion of the project alias
      from the SAT.

C- 9. as_who now  reports lack of  access to read  out of tc_data
      with every invocation.



Contents of MR12.5             2-2                        SRB12.5


C-10. Changed generate_mst  to detach the output  tape I/O switch
      unless the "-hold" control argument is given.


_V_o_l_u_m_e _B_a_c_k_u_p _a_n_d _R_e_c_o_v_e_r_y

D- 1. Corrected   retrieve_from_volume   to   correctly  truncate
      retrieved objects  with embedded nulled pages  by using the
      current  segment length (vtoce.csl)  and not the  number of
      pages (vtoce.records) actually stored.

D- 2. Corrected a problem in reload_volume that caused the reload
      to  fail with a  fatal error if  a tape read  error occured
      while reading an object with embedded nulled pages.

D- 3. Corrected the reload_volume command  to display the correct
      PVIDs and  PV names in  the error message  generated when a
      PVID mismatch is detected.

D- 4. Fixed  reload_volume to  properly reload  FIPS disk devices
      when  the   -disk_model  control  argument   is  specified.
      Previous   releases   did   not   compute   the  number  of
      usable/unusable sectors  correctly because the  wrong value
      was being used for sectors per record.


_O_N_L_I_N_E _T_E_S_T _A_N_D _D_I_A_G_N_O_S_T_I_C_S

E- 1. Corrected   an  MR12.3    software  integration   error  in
      deckfile_manager that caused the program to fail.

E- 2. The following changes were made to io_error_summary:  Added
      the  -channel (-chn)  control argument  to breakdown status
      counts by  device and channel.  Corrected  the reporting of
      FIPS disk device statuses.  Added  the sector number to the
      diagnostic  information provided  by the  -cylinders (-cyl)
      argument.   Corrected  data  bit   error  counts  for  tape
      devices.


_F_O_R_U_M

F- 1. The  header on  mailed, unprocessed  forum transactions has
      been  updated  to  reflect  the  date  the  transaction was
      written and the fact that it was unprocessed.

F- 2. Forum will  no longer fail after issuing  "ls -reverse" for
      large  meetings.  The  module forum_trans_util_.pl1  has an
      area  condition handler to  avoid the possibility  of forum
      raising an "area condition".





Contents of MR12.5             2-3                        SRB12.5


F- 3. Forum  will  no  longer  return  as  the  current  entry  a
      transaction  that was   subsequently deleted.   Instead, it
      will  return  the  highest  numbered  undeleted transaction
      marked as seen.

F- 4. Forum will no longer go into  an infinite loop with the use
      of  the  control  arguments  -after_time,  -before_time and
      -between_time  with  a  date_time  string  that  is between
      transaction blocks.


_H_A_R_D_C_O_R_E

G- 1. force_write  will now  compute the  values sst$fw_none  and
      sst$force_pwrites correctly.  An uninitialized variable was
      being used to compute these values.


_S_Y_S_T_E_M _S_U_P_P_O_R_T _S_O_F_T_W_A_R_E

H- 1. segment_mover will now include  disk subvolume names in its
      messages to the syserr log.

H- 2. The  code  in  mseg_segment_.pl1,  responsible  for message
      segment compaction, has been changed to allow the caller to
      hold the lock during  compaction.  Prior releases truncated
      the entire segment, overwriting the lock word with 0.

H- 3. The copy_disk_volume command will  not fail with an invalid
      IOCB error when attempting to  copy a 451 disk volume which
      has  no alt  partition.  Also,   the device  names for  the
      source and the target are added to the call that prints the
      error summary.


_L_A_N_G_U_A_G_E_S


_F_O_R_T_R_A_N

I- 1. The  Fortran compiler  has been  fixed to  generate correct
      code for VLA references if the  dimension of a VLA is equal
      to or greater than the maximum number that fits in a 18 bit
      halfword (262143).

I- 2. The  Fortran  compiler  has  been   fixed  to  be  able  to
      consistently diagnose  errors when the VLA  size is greater
      than the maximum value.  The  maximum value is 16.7 million
      (2**24 - 1) words.






Contents of MR12.5             2-4                        SRB12.5


_P_L_/_I

J- 1. Corrected a problem with the resolution of constant scoping
      in the  PL/I compiler.  The PL/I compiler  will now resolve
      references  to  options  (constant)  values  (used as label
      subscripts or array extents) using proper scoping rules.

J- 2. The  PL/I  listing  generator  will  no  longer generate an
      out_of_bounds  fault when the  source portion of  a listing
      goes MSF.


_M_A_I_L

K- 1. The read_mail  command has been  changed so that  it checks
      for the arrival of new mail after every request line.

K- 2. x_mail will  now honor changes  to the reply-to  field when
      replying to a message.


_S_Y_S_T_E_M _S_U_B_R_O_U_T_I_N_E_S

L- 1. The format_document_ subroutine  will properly handle input
      strings that are longer than  its internal buffer length of
      256 characters.


_O_N_L_I_N_E _D_O_C_U_M_E_N_T_A_T_I_O_N

M- 1. window_editor_utils_ now has an infoseg.

                     FCO AND FIRMWARE STATUS




_F_I_R_M_W_A_R_E

The firmware identification for MR12.5  is "IFAD D.6".  There are
no changes to the firmware relative to MR12.4.  The IFAD tape was
shipped  with the  MR12.4 release  and will  not be  shipped with
MR12.5.

T&D (Test and Diagnostic) tapes are distributed to all sites with
valid Field Engineering Hardware  Maintenance contracts.  The T&D
tape is distributed as FCO PHAFGA888, rev.  B.2.

This version of  IFAD, firmware and T&D modules  have been tested
and exposed on System M in  Phoenix.  The modules are supplied as
part of the  MR12.5 release and can be found  in >ldd>firmware as
part of  the LDD_STANDARD tape  set.  When subsequent  IFAD tapes
become  available,  it  is  recommended  that  the  site  use the
deckfile_manager,  dfm, command  to load  the released  IFAD tape
into >system_library_tandd.  The firmware  modules should then be
moved  to >ldd>firmware and  a new MST  tape should be  generated
using generate_mst.

The following list of FCOs should be thought of as a continuation
of  the similar  list for  MR12.3.  This  list is  unchanged from
MR12.4.  Sites that are upgrading from MR12.3 will need to verify
that FCOs  for that release have been  installed.  Sites uprading
from  MR12.4  should  have  already  installed  the  FCOs listed.
However, such  sites should verify  that these changes  have been
installed.

As FCOs are completed in Phoenix,  they are sent out to the field
sites.   Some of  the FCOs  affect only  site documentation while
others may  change the hardware to improve  system reliability or
maintainability.   An example  might be  a change  to improve the
supply  of cooling  air to  some boards  so that  the boards  run
cooler  and are therefore  less likely to  fail.  These types  of
FCOs are important to the  long-term success of system operation.
However,  because these  FCOs are   not required  to correct  the
results of any computer program, they are not listed in this SRB.

The purpose of this section is to identify those FCOs that are of
utmost  importance in  the short  term.  This  list includes only
those FCOs needed to correct a program malfunction.

For those FCOs already sent to the field, the "FCO Kit Ship Date"
column  contains the  approximate date  when shipment  of the FCO
kits began.

One of the  column headings in the tables on  the following pages
is "Round Robin".  The implications of a "Yes" in this column for
a particular FCO are as follows:

1.   The FCO kit  includes at least one board.   The new board(s)
     is to replace the board(s) now in the equipment.

2.   Enough FCO kits are put together  for about 20% of the sites
     that are to take part in  the Round Robin.  Some FCOs result
     in a Round Robin for all  sites.  Other FCOs involve a Round
     Robin for some sites but  not for other sites.  For example,
     two  of  the  factors  that   determine  whether  or  not  a
     particular site takes part in a Round Robin FCO are:

     a.   The date codes of certain integrated circuit chips on a
          board.

     b.   The   board  construction    method  --   wirewrap  vs.
          multilayer.



Firmware Status                4-2                        SRB12.5


3.   The  set of  FCO kits  are sent  to the  first set of sites.
     (For the  remainder of this  discussion, we will  follow one
     kit as it makes its Round Robin journey.)

4.   The site installs the FCO.   When the site is satisfied that
     the FCO  is satisfactory, the site returns  the old board(s)
     to Phoenix.

5.   If there is still equipment at other sites that have not had
     the  FCO  installed,  the  returned  board(s)  is  reworked,
     tested, and another FCO kit is assembled in Phoenix and sent
     to the next site.

6.   Since the length  of time it takes a site  to install an FCO
     (and become  satisfied that it is  working correctly) cannot
     be  known  in  advance,  there  is  no  way  to predict with
     accuracy  how  long  it  will  be  until  the  FCO  has been
     installed at all sites.


The FCOs have been classified into the following categories:


_C_A_T_E_G_O_R_Y__1 - The  new  software  for  this  release  will not run
             properly unless these FCOs are installed.


_C_A_T_E_G_O_R_Y__2 - The new software for this release may or may not run
             properly  if these  FCOs are  not installed.   It is
             strongly recommended to have these FCOs installed to
             improve reliability of the system.


_C_A_T_E_G_O_R_Y__3 - FCOs whose  effects are program-visible, but  do not
             fall  into  categories  1  or  2.   Category  3 FCOs
             correct  problems that  are not  uniquely related to
             this release.

                            SECTION 5


                    INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS




_I_N_S_T_A_L_L_A_T_I_O_N _O_V_E_R_V_I_E_W

The installation of MR12.5 has been made as automatic as possible
through  the  use  of  the  master  installation exec_coms called
12.5.install_part1.ec and 12.5.install_part2.ec.  These exec_coms
assume  privileged  access  and  the  availability  of sufficient
quota.   It  is  the  installer's  responsibility  to ensure that
access  and quota  are available.   See "Installation  Exec_coms"
later in  this section for  a list of  the exec_coms used  in the
installation process.

Part 1 of  the installation installs the changes  to the hardcore
and online executable  libraries for MR12.5.  Part 1  must be run
from an existing MR12.3 or  MR12.4 system and should be performed
just prior to  shutdown after all users and IO  daemons have been
logged  out.  At the  completion of Part  1 the system  should be
shutdown and rebooted with the  supplied MR12.5 System Tape (or a
new site specific system tape).

Part  2 of  the installation   is designed  to be  executed while
running normal  service.  It installs  the LDD source  and object
libraries and  the executable, source  and object changes  to PSP
(unbundled) software.  Part 2 should  not be run while the system
is  heavily loaded because  of the additional  load that will  be
placed in the system.

To ensure proper access, it  is recommended that the installation
be done by  a SysDaemon or SysMaint process.   These projects, by
default, have access to the  appropriate gates and directories to
complete  these installations.   Sites that  have changed default
accesses must ensure these exec_coms  are run from a process with
sufficient access.

These instructions assume that the installer is familiar with the
procedures used  with the reload  command and that  the installer
has a  fundamental understanding of the  system library structure
and   Multics   library   installation   procedures.    For  more
information on these topics, please refer to "Operator's Guide to


Installation Instructions      5-1                        SRB12.5


Multics"  (GB61) and   "Multics Administration,  Maintenance, and
Operations Commands" (GB64).

The total size  of the MR12.5 release directories is  up to 18000
records, depending  upon PSP software  purchased by a  site.  Not
all PSPs are changed for MR12.5.  In order to install all changed
standard and changed PSP products into the online libraries (step
4),  a total of  36000 free records  could be needed  under >ldd.
This additional storage is temporary  and may be deleted when the
site  is satisfied  that reversion  to the  prior release  is not
necessary.  Each exec_com  can be run in parts  to reduce overall
storage requirements.

Based on testing at ACTC, the  time required to install MR12.5 is
approximately two hours.

The individual  parts of this  release are contained  in separate
directories subordinate to >ldd>MR12.5:

     12.5.C_COMPILER                12.5.HARDCORE
     12.5.COBOL                     12.5.LDD
     12.5.EXECUTABLE                12.5.LINUS
     12.5.EXECUTIVE_MAIL            12.5.LISTER
     12.5.EXTENDED_MAIL             12.5.MOWSE
     12.5.FORTRAN                   12.5.PASCAL
     12.5.FORUM                     12.5.RJE

Several  of these  directories contain  changes to  PSP products.
Such PSP directories  will not exist if the site  has not ordered
the corresponding  PSP product.  Only those  directories found to
exist  are   installed.   The  directories   12.5.EXECUTABLE  and
12.5.HARDCORE  will  be  installed  in  Part  1.   The  remaining
directories will be installed in Part 2.


_I_N_S_T_A_L_L_A_T_I_O_N _S_U_P_P_O_R_T

The  installation instructions have  been tested and  verified at
ACTC  in  Calgary.   If  problems  occur  with these installation
procedures contact:

          Dave Schroth          (403) 295-5900 or
          Ward Anderson         (403) 295-5900

Electronic mail  and the "ii"  forum meeting on  the ACTC Multics
system may also be used  to obtain assistance and convey comments
on the release.








Installation Instructions      5-2                        SRB12.5


_I_N_S_T_A_L_L_A_T_I_O_N _S_T_E_P_S


_S_t_e_p _1_:  _T_a_p_e _R_e_l_o_a_d


While  running under  the current  (MR12.3 or  MR12.4) system  in
normal service,  login a Retriever.SysDaemon daemon  process from
the console (using source virtual console rt):

     login Retriever.SysDaemon rt

and begin reloading the release by issuing the command:

     r rt reload -nosetlvid -noquota

When the  reload program prompts "Input tape  label:", reply with
the names of  the MR12.5 release tapes as supplied  (in the order
listed):

     12.5.exec
     12.5.ldd_standard_1
     12.5.ldd_standard_2  (possibly)
     12.5.unbundled
     12.5.misc

The 12.5.misc tape must be the last tape loaded.  This will cause
the MR12.5 tapes to loaded into the directories:

     >library_dir_dir>MR12.5
     >library_dir_dir>system_library_1>info
     >library_dir_dir>crossref
     >documentation>MR12.5

The ldd_standard  tape set may  contain either one  tape labelled
ldd_standard_1   or  two    tapes  labelled   ldd_standard_1  and
ldd_standrd_2.  The number of tapes received will depend upon the
exact length of the ldd_standard_1 tape reel.


_S_t_e_p _2_:  _H_a_r_d_c_o_r_e _a_n_d _E_x_e_c_u_t_a_b_l_e


This step starts Part 1 of the installation.

The  Part 1  exec_com installs  the changed  MR12.5 hardcore  and
online executable software.

Enter  Special Session,  ensuring  all  users and  SysDaemons are
logged out.  Login as Repair.SysDaemon and type:





Installation Instructions      5-3                        SRB12.5


     dsr working_dir
     cwd >ldd>MR12.5
     ec 12.5.install_part1

Respond to  queries as appropriate.  The  exec_com is interactive
allowing Part 1 to be installed  all at once or partially.  There
are  no  dependencies  within  sections  in  Part  1,  but  it is
recommended that it be run in one pass.

If  any site  local modifications   or additions  to the  Multics
System Tape (MST)  have been made, a new MST  should be generated
to include the MR12.5 hardcore changes.


_S_t_e_p _3_:  _R_e_b_o_o_t


This step will complete Part 1 of the MR12.5 installation.

Shut down the system and  reboot using the supplied MR12.5 System
Tape (or the new MST created at the end of the preceding step).

Although MR12.5 source and  object changes and unbundled software
changes  have  not  yet  been  installed,  normal  service can be
resumed at this time.

In  the  event  it  becomes  necessary  to  revert  the  hardcore
installation, reboot the system with the previous system tape.


_S_t_e_p _4_:  _L_D_D _a_n_d _U_n_b_u_n_d_l_e_d


This step starts Part 2  of the installation and installs changes
to  the online  source and   object libraries  and the  unbundled
libraries.

Login as Repair.SysDaemon and type:

     dsr working_dir
     cwd >ldd>MR12.5
     ec 12.5.install_part2

This release is packaged in such  a way that no part installed in
this  step is  dependent on  any other.   If quota  is a problem,
repeated partial installations of this portion of the release may
be performed.  The 12.5.install_part2.ec  may be repeated as many
times as needed.

For example, it is not necessary  to install 12.5.LDD in order to
run  MR12.5.  If quota  is a problem,  12.5.LDD may be  installed
after  all other  parts have  been installed  and library cleanup
(Step 6) completed.


Installation Instructions      5-4                        SRB12.5


Answer "yes"  to install any part  of the release that  would not
cause quota problems.  Answer "no" to postpone the installation.

This  step completes  installation  of  all software  changes for
MR12.5.


_S_t_e_p _5_:  _R_e_v_e_r_t_i_n_g _S_o_f_t_w_a_r_e


In the event it becomes necessary  to revert back to the previous
release, or part of the  previous release, the instructions below
are recommended.

Note that  these instructions are not  valid if Step 6  below has
been processed.

SOFTWARE INSTALLED IN PART 1.

Enter Special Session, ensure all users and SysDaemons are logged
out.  Login as Repair.SysDaemon and type:

     cwd >ldd>MR12.5>12.5.EXECUTABLE
     us de_install install_executable
     cwd >ldd>MR12.5>12.5.HARDCORE
     us de_install install_hard

Shutdown system and reboot with  the system tape for the previous
release.

SOFTWARE INSTALLED IN PART 2.

Software installed in  this part may be de-installed  in whole or
in part at the site's  option.  Without shutting the system down,
login  as Repair.SysDaemon.   For that  portion of  MR12.5 to  be
backed out, type:

     cwd >ldd>MR12.5><dir_name>
     us de_install <io_name>

where <dir_name> is one of the directories:

     12.5.C_COMPILER                12.5.LDD
     12.5.COBOL                     12.5.LINUS
     12.5.EXECUTIVE_MAIL            12.5.LISTER
     12.5.EXTENDED_MAIL             12.5.MOWSE
     12.5.FORTRAN                   12.5.PASCAL
     12.5.FORUM                     12.5.RJE







Installation Instructions      5-5                        SRB12.5


and <io_name> specifies the io  segment of the installation to be
removed:

     install_ccompiler             install_ldd
     install_cobol                 install_linus
     install_executive_mail        install_lister
     install_extended_mail         install_mowse
     install_fortran               install_pascal
     install_forum                 install_rje

Repeat this command for each portion of MR12.5 to be reverted.


_S_t_e_p _6_:  _L_i_b_r_a_r_y _C_l_e_a_n_u_p


The  following  instructions  should  be  executed  when  you are
satisfied  that the  installed software  is stable.   Old release
software replaced by the execution  of the above instructions has
been  renamed according  the  convention  used by  the update_seg
command.  The segments have not yet been deleted from the storage
system.

If any  part of the installation  of MR12.5 was performed  in the
current  system bootload  with active  user or  daemon processes,
this  step should  be deferred  until the  next system  bootload.
This will  avoid possible segment fault errors  in user processes
as  a result  of old  library executable  segments being  deleted
during this step.

Login as Repair.SysDaemon and type:

     cwd >ldd>MR12.5
     ec 12.5.cleanup_library
     cwd >ldd
     dd MR12.5

to  delete   the  old  library  segments   and  the  installation
libraries.  At this  time you will have recovered  all quota used
by the installation of MR12.5.


_I_N_S_T_A_L_L_A_T_I_O_N _E_X_E_C___C_O_M_S


As mentioned above, the installation of MR12.5 is driven by a set
of exec_coms.   Following the completion  of Step 1  above, these
exec_coms may be examined as needed.

There are four top level  exec_coms used to install this release.
These are:




Installation Instructions      5-6                        SRB12.5


     >ldd>MR12.5>12.5.install_part1.ec
     >ldd>MR12.5>12.5.install_part2.ec
     >ldd>MR12.5>12.5.cleanup_library.ec
     >ldd>MR12.5>update.ec  (update_.ec)

In addition to the above, there will be an installing exec_com in
each directory  reloaded under >ldd>MR12.5.  For a  list of these
directories, refer to the "Installation Overview" portion of this
section  of   the  SRB.   These  ecs  are   responsible  for  the
installation of  the contents of the containing  directory.  As a
minimum, the following installing ecs will exist:

     >ldd>MR12.5>12.5.HARDCORE>install_hard.ec
     >ldd>MR12.5>12.5.EXECUTABLE>install_executable.ec
     >ldd>MR12.5>12.5.LDD>install_ldd.ec

In  addition,  for  each  PSP  package  product  that  a site has
ordered,  there   will  be  a  corresponding   directory  and  an
installing    ec.    The    installing   ec    will   be    named
install_<pspname>.ec.
