PTF(s): U468049

FULL PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
------------------------            
The retrieve operation of Quicktime movies using DL either hangs or kicks off
the VideoCharger player instead of the Quicktime player.

FILESETS:   avs.mm 2.0.0.4

SUPERSEDED PTFS:
----------------
IX89709 Repair media manager resource leak

This change repairs resource (pipe handle) leak in
AIX version of media manager server.

IX85511 VideoCharger Media Manager enhancement required to support UDB Extender.

In order for the VideoCharger Server to access user databases, a db2profile
script must be executed before Media Manager is started to ensure that the
Media Manager subsystem runs in the DB2 instance environment.  To accomplish
this, a shell script (/usr/bin/mm.sh) is created automatically when this PTF
(avs.mm 2.0.0.2) is applied.  This script invokes the db2profile automatically
when Media Manager is started.

To install this PTF, first execute the db2profile script provided by DB2, e.g.
. db2profile, then enter smitty to install the PTF.  Executing the db2profile
script first allows the installation to correctly generate /usr/bin/mm.sh.  If
no db2profile script has been executed before installing this PTF, then you
must edit /usr/bin/mm.sh after installation to invoke the proper db2profile
for the desired DB2 instance.

This is only required to enable support for the VideoCharger UDB Extender.  If
you do not wish to use UDB Extender support, you do not need to run db2profile
or edit /usr/bin/mm.sh.

Refer to vcxtndr.pdf for more information on VideoCharger UDB Extender.

IX85512 Problems retrieving videos using Digital Library clients

Retrieve operation performed by Digital Library clients that are running on a
different code page fails.  The Digital Library v2 CSD client appears to be
unable to use a handle returned by Media Manager that is used to locate the
object within the Digital Library Daemon.


INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 
--------------------------
(1) Download the file "avs.??.rte_2.0.0.?.bff"
in binary mode into an empty directory on your VideoCharger server.

(2) Logon as user 'root'.  Stop the VideoCharger Server by
using the command "stopsrc -cg vs".  Type the command 
"lssrc -g vs" to verify that all the processes have stopped.

(3)Apply the update using the command "smitty update_all".
For "INPUT device / directory for software" specify the 
directory in which you saved the .bff file.
        
(4) On the "Update Currently Installed Software to Latest Level" panel,
press the 'enter' key to start the installation program.    

(5) After installation has completed successfully restart the VideoCharger
server by using the command "startsrc -g vs" at the command prompt.
