Note that there may still be CS/NT-related services running on the machine after stopping these applications, but this is normal and will not affect the installation of this fix package. IMPORTANT! This is an APAR fix, so carefully compare the dates of the parts supplied with this APAR fix with the dates of the parts you are replacing. If ANY of the parts being replaced are more recent than the parts shipped with this APAR discontinue the installation of this fix and contact Customer Support for clarification. 4) Run the INSTFIX.BAT file specifying as parameters the path where CSNT is installed and the path where Windows NT is installed. For example, you might type: INSTFIX.BAT c:\ibmcs c:\winnt and then press Enter. This batch file will rename the CSNT files being replaced, copy in the new files, and update the server's registry to take advantage of the new files. The previous versions of the files will have ".prejr12583" appended to their filenames to make them unique. 5) Shutdown and Restart the CS/NT server machine. 6) Restart your CS/NT node. Below are special instructions for implementing the fixes for JR11918, JR12018, and JR11021 if you require these fixes in your environment. The procedure for JR11021 is recommended. The procedure for JR11918 is necessary to fully utilize the number of simultaneously available link stations. The procedure for JR12018 is only required for certain environments. If you are unsure, do not disable the additional security. To implement the fix for JR11021: 1) Copy CSVREG.EXE from the temporary directory to the directory where CS/NT is installed. Then run CSVREG.EXE from a Command Prompt. You will receive a message when it has completed. Note that this file only needs to be run once on the CS/NT server unless CS/NT 5.01 is reinstalled. Running CSVREG.EXE multiple times will not harm your CS/NT server. To implement the fix for JR11918: 1) Using the SNA Node Configuration, open your .acg file after applying the fix. 2) Save the file and exit SNA Node Configuration. 3) Modify the .acg file from a word-processor application such as edit. Find the following heading: PORT=( .... .... .... PORT_LAN_SPECIFIC_DATA=( .... .... INB_LINK_ACT_LIM=128 OUT_LINK_ACT_LIM=127 TOT_LINK_ACT_LIM=255 4) The inbound link activation limit has a range of 0-255. The outbound link activation limit has a range of 1-255. The total link activation limit has a range of 0-255. The inbound + outbound has to equal the total. 5) Modify the numbers on the 3 values, then save the .acg file. 6) Run the Configuration Verification utility against your new .acg file. 7) Shutdown and Restart the CS/NT server machine. 8) Restart your CS/NT node. To implement the fix for JR12018: Note: This procedure is only required for certain environments. If you are unsure, do not disable the additional security. Perform the following option in order to DISABLE the extra security: 1) Run regedt32 2) Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Appn 3) Choose Add Value from the Edit menu 4) In the Value Name type the string LimitTpSecurity 5) Leave the DataType as REG_SZ, and click OK 6) In the String Editor, type the string YES and click OK. 7) Close regedt32.
