The Question is:

 
our system is vms5.3.It has no tcp/ip proctol.I install ucx013 in
our system. The step is :
1.$mount/ov=id mua0
2.$set def sys$loadable_images
3.$copy/log mua0:[]syslicense.exe *.*
4.$dismount mua0:
5.$shutdown
When I boot the machine.it meet a error:
%execinit-F-error loading system file-SYSLICENSE.EXE
RO=00002398
the the system halt
how to solve it?
thanks
 
 
 
 
 


The Answer is :

 
  The Wizard would strongly recommend an upgrade to OpenVMS VAX V5.5-2,
  to V6.2, or to the current V7.1 release.
 
  Somehow you have gotten an incorrect version of SYSLICENSE.EXE, likely
  too new for the (antique) OpenVMS VAX V5.3 release currently in use:
 
    $ exit %x2398
    %SYSTEM-W-SYSVERDIF, system version mismatch; please relink
    $
 
  Relocating system loadable images in the fashion shown must be done
  with caution, as errors such as you have encountered here can occur.
 
  You *may* be able to bootstrap this system by resetting LOAD_SYS_IMAGES
  to 0, to disable loading the "extra" system images -- this will leave
  the system in a very limited enviroment, and you may or may not be able
  to recover from a problem with this particular image through this SYSGEN
  mechanism.  You may well end up booting from another system disk to repair
  the problem with the contents of this system disk, or rolling in the BACKUP
  you made prior to the TCP/IP package installation or the last (standalone)
  BACKUP you made of your system disk.
 
  The Wizard would also strongly recommend evaluating your BACKUP strategy,
  as it appears your current BACKUP scheme is insufficient for your needs.
