A problem I have run into in using VMSINSTAL when there are users on the system is that if a user is using HELP and the product I'm installing modifys HELPLIB, the installation aborts. I've always been able to just DO IT AGAIN, but this causes me stress which I don't need. We reserve 3 hours a week for system maintaince, so that's when I do my INSTALlations. The above applies to layered products. For VMS updates, the system is always rebooted (or has been in the past), so why let users on only to be rudely kicked off at the end of (or during) the update?
