This document covers solved issues available for 2.1.11:

EOR_WORK and EOR_NOM definable in service section

Solves problem NPROS-263.

Note the following update in npr.txt: 

* EOR_WORK=<EOR (NOP) work directory>

  Default:     none
  Description: The EOR (NOP) work directory can be defined here.
  Notes:       - A default for all service sections can be specified in
                 the [DEFAULTS] section.
                 You may use different work directories for each NPR
                 service, if you specify this parameter on the section
                 level.
               - This setting always overrides the environment variable
                 EOR_WORK.
               - This parameter must be used, if the NPR service(s) are
                 to be started automatically during system startup.
  Scope:       UNIX.


* EOR_NOM=<NOM work directory>

  Default:     none
  Description: The NOM work directory can be defined here.
  Notes:       - A default for all service sections can be specified in
                 the [DEFAULTS] section.
                 You may use different work directories for each NPR
                 service, if you specify this parameter on the section
                 level.
               - This setting always overrides the environment variable
                 EOR_NOM.

Error Handling for drive not existing

Solves problem NPROS-265.

We have corrected the error handling for drive not existing. Error code ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND is handled separately now.

MSVC 2017: Compiler option /Qspectre

Solves problem NPROS-269.

The /Qspectre compiler option is added for MSVC 2017 builds of Entire System Server (NPR).

Open File Timeout

Solves problem NPROS-271.

If in npr.ini the parameter Open_File_Timeout is set to "0" or Open_File_Timeout is missing, no open file timeout checking will be performed by Entire System Server (NPR). The default of 600 seconds is changed to zero (no check).

FILE/READ, WRITE: buffer type D

Solves problem NPROS-272.

For UNIX local calls, a buffer size of 60 KB was enabled. 60 KB is chosen to avoid CALL INTERFACE4 calls to local NPR UNIX currently.
