	2. Installation

		SHS is available for VAX/VMS 5.5, VAX/OpenVMS 5.5-2 
		and above, and Alpha/OpenVMS 6.0 and above.

		You need to login into a privileged account to perform 
		the installation.  Disk Space requirement: 1400 blocks 
		during the installation, 700 blocks net space for the 
		system disk after the installation.  Installation time: 
		may vary depending on different hardware platforms, but 
		on an AlphaStation 200 4/233, it takes about 4 miniutes.

		To install the SHS kit, under the DCL enter:

		$@SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL SHS011 source [install-options]

        SHS Release Notes 

		Users need GROUP privilege to access the process(es) not
		owned by themselves but within the same group, and need 
		WORLD privilege to access any process(es) outside their 
		own group. During the installation procedure, it will 
		prompt you whether to choose to install SHS image as a 
		known privileged image in order to lift the above 
		limitation. The Installation procedure automatically 
		places a file SHS$STARTUP.COM in SYS$STARTUP.  Revise 
		SHS$STARTUP.COM to suit your desire. If you wish this 
		file to be invoked every time the system reboots, you 
		need to include a line in your STARTUP.COM:

			@SYS$STARTUP:SHS$STARTUP.COM


	3.  VMScluster

		If you are in a VAX/VMScluster environment, and want to 
		make SHS available clusterwide, you need to install it 
		only once for each system sharing a common system disk.  
		After you have installed the SHS kit in the first 
		system, under the DCL enter (still need the privileged 
		account):

			$MCR SYSMAN
			SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/CLUSTER
			SYSMAN> SET PROFILE/PRIV=CMKRNL
			SYSMAN> DO INSTALL REPLACE SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB]-
			_SYSMAN>DCLTABLES.EXE
			SYSMAN> EXIT

		Check the SYSMAN message, make sure the command has 
		been successfully excuted on every system in your 
		cluster.  

				     - NOTE -
        	You still need to invoke the SHS$STARTUP.COM 
		individually on each of the systems you wish to install 
		SHS as a known privileged image.


	4. Bug fix and Bug report
	
		Fixed from Version 1.0: SHS will crash when it tries to 
		handle a suspended outswapped process.

        SHS Release Notes 


		Fixed from Version 1.0: SHS will exit prematurally if 
		the total process number on the system is greater than 
		512.

		Enhancement: 1) Added the /UIC qualifier, /[NO]BATCH, 
		/[NO]INTERACTIVE, and /[NO]NETWORK qualifiers to handle 
		different request options.  2) Actually SHS may be 
		implemented as a foreign command (via DCL symbols or 
		DCL$PATCH).  It is not available from this VMSINSTAL 
		kit, however the module is still built with image, with 
		attached source code and some common system management 
		knowledge. It should not be a big task to figure it out.

		Bug report to:  James Shen <jshen1@ford.com>.  Any bug 
		report and comments are extremely welcome.
