Dear SCO Customer, Support Level Supplement (SLS) ptf7625b, the UnixWare 7.1.0 and 7.1.1 cpio Supplement, addresses the issue below. ptf7625a addresses these problems: Attempting 'cpio - p' on a large file can result in mmap() consuming all the physical memory, forcing the system to begin swapping and forcing ReliantHA to fail over. SLS ptf7625a modifies the -p option of cpio to allow the command to mmap in 8MB chunks. ptf7625b only adds the option of installing in quiet mode.
