This could cause the system to crash. Timing has been changed to allow the dismount to complete before the disk is mounted again. - When restarting the InfoServer Monitor, the deletion of the old InfoServer Monitor process might not complete before the new one was started. This could cause the new process creation to fail with a duplicate process name error. The command procedure SYS$MANAGER:INFOSERVER_MONITOR_STARTUP.COM now waits before starting the new process to allow the old process to be deleted. The log file now correctly displays the current software version. 2 New Features in InfoServer Monitor V2.1 The log file SYS$MANAGER:INFOSERVER_MONITOR.LOG now displays the InfoServer Monitor's process ID (PID) at the top of the file. 3 ISO9660 disk restrictions InfoServer Monitor does not correctly mount ISO9660 disks on systems running OpenVMS VAX V5.5 and F11CD software. This functionality may be included in a future release of InfoServer Monitor. Since ISO9660 disks are supported in versions of the OpenVMS operating system starting with OpenVMS VAX V6.0 and OpenVMS Alpha V6.1, InfoServer Monitor V2.0 correctly handles ISO9660 disks when running under these versions of OpenVMS. 1
