Download JR20883.EXE in Binary format into a temporary directory. * * 2. Run JR20883.exe to uncompress the package which will include * SERVER2.EXE and APIPACK2.EXE. * * To expand SERVER2 package run SERVER2.EXE which will generate * a Server sub-dir including all server package files. There will * also be registrychange.exe, servicestest.exe, killpcs_agnt.exe * and instfix.bat in current directory but only required for the * package installation. * * 2a.If you have SNA API Client Services (Split-stack API Client/Server), * copy APIPACK2.EXE in the client workstation and ref. the * client readme for installation instructions. * * 2b. NLSPACK2.exe contains non-English language updates. Customers * running non-English versions of CS/WIN need to also install * NLSPACK2 package. * English package is installed by default as part of * INSTFIX.BAT and does not require separate installation * of NLSPACK2.exe. * * We have included new function updates with this fixpack package. * See the newfunc_server.txt and newfunc_client.txt files for more * details on the new updates in server and client packages. * * 3a.There is a problem with CS/612 GA installation where Trace * Facility does not get installed correctly when CS/612 is * installed on a drive other than the boot drive. The problem * should be resolved prior to installing the server fixpack. * * The Trace Facility gets installed OK on the user supplied * drive but the registry is incorrectly updated to reflect the * BOOT drive for the new trace service CSTRCSER.EXE. * The problem is resolved by modifying the registry to * reflect the IBMCS drive (user supplied) for Service * CSTRCSER.EXE. * * Use regedit to update value for IMAGEPATH key under * \HKLM\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\SERVICES\ * CSTRCSER\ to correct CSTRCSER.EXE path location. * * * 3b.INSTFIX.BAT checks fora PCOMM version less than 5.7 CSD3 * is installed and if true, does not update the Trace Facility. * CS/WIN 6.1.2 would use the Trace Facility installed by PCOM. * If you have installed PCOMM 5.7 CSD3 or PCOMM 5.8 on CS/WIN * 6.1.2, PCOMM will not Install it's trace facility. * In this case, INSTFIX will update CS/WIN 612 trace facility. * * If versions of PCOMM prior to 5.7 CSD3 are installed, you will * not have any of the CS/WIN 612 Trace facility enhancements. * * There is a problem with some versions of PCOMM prior to 5.7 * CSD3 where using ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS to remove PCOMM removes * the Service APPNNODE from the REGISTRY. CS will NOT run * successfully without this registry entry. While this problem * has been resolved in later PCOMM versions you can do the * following to address the problem. * * The recommended procedure in this situation is as follows: * Remove PCOMM using ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS * Remove CS/WIN 612 * Re-install CS/WIN 612 * Install PCOMM 5.8 (or PCOMM 5.7 CSD3 or later) * Apply CS/WIN 612 Fixpack2 maintenance upgrade * * * 4. Stop Communications Server for Windows (including your node, * Node Operations, Node Configuration, Log Viewer, and any other * CS/WIN components you have started). Note that there may still * be CS/WIN-related services running on the machine after stopping * these applications, but this is normal and should not affect * the installation of this fix pack package. * * 4a. Stop ALL Window applications on this box since a reboot will * be required after running INSTFIX.BAT maintenance installation. * * 4b.Refer the INSTFIX.BAT for details on various installation options. * * INSTFIX.BAT can be run with the following options to preserve * output to a log file. * * INSTFIX > FIX_PACK_2.TXT 2>&1 * for silent install including errors in the log. * * NOTE1: INSTFIX.BAT issues "NET STOP APPNNODE" to * stop APPNNODE Services. * * NOTE2: INSTFIX.BAT also issues "NET STOP LDLCSERV" to * stop LDLCSERV Services. * * INSTFIX.BAT also issues "CSTRACE STOP and CSTRACE SHUTDOWN" to * stop CSTRCSER trace Service. * * NOTE3: INSTFIX will rename the current or target files being * replaced to &file.pre6122, then copy the updated files. * * IF for some reason you rerun INSTFIX.BAT, you will receive * errors during each rename because the &file.prefixpack2 * file will already exist.The original copy of the file will * be preserved in &file.pre6122 and available as a * backup for restore purposes. * * If for some reason you need to restore or backout this * fixpack, you would have to manually rename the * updated file names and restore the original files. * * NOTE4: INSTFIX.BAT issues VER to determine Windows NT or 2000 version. * * For Windows 2000 user, INSTFIX.BAT will copy * APPNBASE.SYS as APPNBASE.SYS * PDLNDLDL.sys as PDLNDLDL.sys * LDLCSERV.exe as LDLCSERV.exe * LLC2W2K.sys as LLC2.SYS * * For Windows NT user, INSTFIX.BAT will copy * APPNBNT.SYS as APPNBASE.SYS * PDLNDLDL_IP4.sys as PDLNDLDL.sys * LDLCSERV_IP4.exe as LDLCSERV.exe * LLC2NT.sys as LLC2.SYS * * NOTE5: After all the files are copied, INSTFIX.BAT automatically issues * "SERVICESTEST -c LDLCSERV" command to initialize LDLCSERV service. * * NOTE6: INSTFIX.BAT automatically issues "NET START LDLCSERV" to * start LDLCSERV service. * * NOTE7: The default value of the registry key * HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\IBM\Communications Server\ * CurrentVersion\VersionNumber will be modified from 6120 to 6122. * * 5). After running INSTFIX.BAT confirm ALL component parts listed above * reflect new dates. If they do NOT, then you must manually copy them * after you REBOOT but prior to starting any IBMCS Services. ALL files * must reflect updated dates or IBMCS will not function properly. * * 6). Shutdown and Restart WINDOWS to reboot the machine. * * * 7). You can now start IBMCS Node Operations and configure the new * available functions. * * CONTACT FOR SUPPORT: * * If you have any questions, please call the IBM SUPPORT CENTER * for your Country.
