Best to do a "set default DKA200:[TCPIP_ALPHA056.KIT]" then start up
PCSI like so:

prod install *

(you will be presented with a menu).

On a related note, last month I was doing some retrograde testing by
installing old software on a newly built 7.3-2 system. There was no
DECnet so I FTP'd the PCSI files over where they were promptly created
in lower case. Guess what, the product command could see/use them
properly until I renamed them back to upper case. Weird eh?
