110936 Parity Fixer (PFX) Version: 1.3, July 1991 Author: Lawrence M. Baker and Gary L. Maxwell, U.S. Geological Survey, 345 Middlefield Rd MS977, Menlo Park, CA 94025 Operating System: RSX-11M-PLUS V4.1 Source Language: MACRO-11 Memory Required: 2KW Software Required: TeX (for documentation only) Keywords: Utilities - RSX-11, TeX Abstract: The Parity Fixer (PFX) is a privileged utility program used to decommission a block of memory in a system-controlled partition so that it will no longer be available. If a portion of memory is known to be bad, or is suspected of causing problems (e.g., the faulty locations identified by a memory parity-error entry in the error log), PFX can be used to disable allocations from the offending area so that RSX will operate safely until a more thorough diagnosis and repair can be scheduled. Release notes distributed with each order. Notes: Documentation is written in TeX. The dvi and PostScript files are included. Restrictions: Operating system RSX-11M requires PLAS support. Operating system RSX-11M-PLUS V4.1 or later is required. Operating system Micro/RSX V4.1 or later is required. Media (Service Charge Code): User's Manual (EA), 600' Magnetic Tape (MA) Format: FILES-11
