Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700/10.X/PHKL_17651

Symptoms:
	PHKL_17651:
	This patch enables new functionality that is part of the
	10.20 ACE (Additional Core Enhancements) Workstation bundle,
	which adds new I/O drivers to support the B1000, C3000, and
	J5000 systems.  In particular this patch fixes a problem
	with control of the soft power switch.  Without this patch,
	the softpower switch  on the workstations listed above may
	malfunction.  This could cause the workstation to reboot or
	fail to boot.

Defect Description:
	PHKL_17651:
	New functionality to support the B1000, C3000, and J5000
	systems on HP-UX 10.20.   The pdc firmware call to
	PDC_SOFTPOWER(info) returns the address of the softpower
	switch flag but does not communicate with the 8051
	controller. In the case where the controller does not
	respond or can not perform the requested task, we must
	restore the state of the softpower switch flag.
	Resolution:
	Restore the state of the softpower switch flag if the
	8051 microcontroller does not respond.

	------------------------------------------------------------
	1. Back up your system before installing a patch.

	2. Login as root.

	3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory.

	4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch:

		cd /tmp
		sh PHKL_17651

	5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the
	    patch:

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \
			-s /tmp/PHKL_17651.depot

	5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the
	    server to install the patch on the server and the clients:

		swcluster -i -b

	    This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and
	    force all clients to be shut down.

	    WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the
		     patch installation.  Installing the patch while the
		     clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to
		     serious problems.

	    The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which
	    you must specify:

		alternate root path  -  default is /export/shared_root/OS_700
		source depot path    -  /tmp/PHKL_17651.depot

	    To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing
	    "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install"
	    from the Menubar.

	5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster:

		- run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install
		  the patch on the cluster server.

		- run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install
		  the patch on the cluster clients.

	By default swinstall will archive the original software in
	/var/adm/sw/patch/PHKL_17651.  If you do not wish to retain a
	copy of the original software, you can create an empty file
	named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE.

	Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the
	         patch cannot be deinstalled.  Please be careful
		 when using this feature.

	It is recommended that you move the PHKL_17651.text file to
	/var/adm/sw/patch for future reference.

	To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the
	tape drive, use the command:

		dd if=/tmp/PHKL_17651.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k
