MIPS 3000 Hard copy release note for 6.3E03

ADDITIONAL RELEASE NOTES FOR MIPS 6.3E03


o LOCKING INTEGRITY

The MIPS 3000 single processor chip does not have a hardware based
atomic instruction which would allow Progress to give a user complete
autonomy over writing to the database, bi files etc. There are cases
where this conflict may cause the server to crash. Generally, this
would occur on very active systems where CPU resources are at a
premium.


o PROBUILD

When running load scripts after probuild the following message
may be ignored.

"ld:
/svr3/usr/lib/libmutex.a(libmutexs.o): Non-MIPS1 instruction sched
detected. Executable may not run correctly on MIPS1 machines."


o PROSERVE

To avoid the possibility of hanging a Progress server,
you should be running with the mutex daemon v5.01+2.

To find out what version you are running, enter the following
system commands:

mips:6$ type mutexd
mutexd is /usr/etc/mutexd

mips:6$ what /usr/etc/mutexd
/usr/etc/mutexd:
mutexd.c RISC/os 5.01+2
libmutexc.c RISC/os 5.01+2
RISC/os 5.01


o EMBEDDED SQL DEMO

When using the dyndemo application provided by PROGRESS,
CTRL-C and CTRL-\ have no effect.
