    ===============
    Not applicable

    Patch-to-Patch Dependencies
    ===========================

    Requires Diagnostics version A.02.25 (ODIKXK2C or later)
    (DUI Version A.02.25)
    This version of diagnostics supports COLOSSUS.

    Note that this is now a real dependency, so we do not need
    the pre-colossus/post-colossus versions of MEMSCANP. This
    patch must be installed on a system that has ODIKXK2C or
    a later patch installed (As of the GR date of 12/16/2002
    of OSPMX35A, the current GR ODI patch and the dependency
    is ODILXA9A)

    External Symptoms, Cause, Fix Description
    =========================================

    OSPMX35A contains Predictive version B.60.05

    This patch (OSPMX35 A) is the 4th patch for Predictive
    for MPE iX 6.0 It supercedes patches OSPKXT7B,OSPKXT7A,
    and OSPKXP1A. The OSPKXT7 A patch was never released, but
    the Quality Review copies of Powerpatch/Express I
    had the "A" version of the patch.

    This patch fixes 2 new problems:

      8606-230470 - Predictive stops configuring devices if it
                    encounters a device with a path tha is > 16
                    characters long. This sometimes occurs because
                    a device is in the PPT (Physical Path Table)
                    with trailing blanks.

                    The fix for this is two-fold. First, remove
                    leading and trailing blanks from all string
                    fields. The string fields are the ldev,
                    pdev (path), and product identifier. The
                    second part of the fix is to NOT stop
                    configuring devices if 1 device has a path
                    that is too long. Just skip that device and
                    go on to the next device.

      8606-178548 - Predictive on MPE iX with OSPKXT7B exhibits
                    an old problem:

                    If a 997 system has Colossus memory, MEMSCANP
                    aborts with the following stack trace:

               +-------------------------------------+

    Please wait while Predictive checks your system's configuration.
    STRING OVERFLOW (PASCERR 650)

    ABORT: PSCONFIG.PRED.SYS
    NM SYS a.00ab34a0 dbg_abort_trace+$24

    Program terminated in an error state. (CIERR 976)

                    This occurs because the MEMSCAN program
                    submitted as P22KXT7B does NOT have the
                    Colossus changes as it should.
