Hi Everyone, I recently upgraded our HP 3000 969-ks/400 from MPE 6.0pp2 to 7.0 express 1. I followed the instructions in the Software Maintenance Manual, and all the steps there went okay. The process asked for the FOS tape, our prod/subsys tape, and the express 1 tape. However, when I do :SHOWME USER: #S52,MANAGER.SYS,JOHN (NOT IN BREAK) RELEASE: C.70.00 MPE/iX HP31900 C.39.06 USER VERSION: C.70.00 CURRENT: THU, AUG 29, 2002, 2:44 PM LOGON: THU, AUG 29, 2002, 2:37 PM CPU SECONDS: 1 CONNECT MINUTES: 7 $STDIN LDEV: 226 $STDLIST LDEV: 226 It appears not to know that I've put the express 1 patches on. Our N-Class box, which came with 7.0 Express 1 pre-loaded reports: /showme USER: #S2107,MGR.ISU,JOHN (IN PROGRAM) RELEASE: C.70.01 MPE/iX HP31900 C.39.06 USER VERSION: C.70.01 CURRENT: THU, AUG 29, 2002, 2:46 PM LOGON: THU, AUG 29, 2002, 11:26 AM CPU SECONDS: 1 CONNECT MINUTES: 200 $STDIN LDEV: 384 $STDLIST LDEV: 384 Furthermore, when I print the first few lines of HPSWINFO.PUB.SYS, I get the following: :print hpswinfo.pub.sys ******************************************************************* ** ** ** *** MPE/iX MIT C.70.00 *** ** ** POWERPATCH C7001 P6 ** ** THU, MAR 1, 2001, 5:02 PM ** ** ** ** LIST OF HEWLETT PACKARD COMMERCIAL SOFTWARE PRODUCTS ** While on our N-Class box with 7.0 express 1 preinstalled: /print hpswinfo.pub.sys ******************************************************************* ** ** ** *** MPE/iX MIT C.70.01 *** ** ** POWERPATCH C7001 P6 ** ** TUE, MAY 22, 2001, 12:47 PM ** ** ** So, even though I followed all the steps, and they all looked like they ran properly, it doesn't appear that I got the Express 1 installed properly. Is there any other way for me to tell? If the install didn't go correctly, can I just reinstall the Express 1 as a PowerPatch, or do I need to do the complete reinstall process again. Thanks!
