Patch Name: PHCO_15980 Patch Description: s700_800 10.24 (VVOS) liblabels +h internal_name added Creation Date: 98/07/22 Post Date: 98/08/13 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.24 s800: 10.24 Products: N/A Filesets: VirtualVaultOS.VVOS-SHLIBS Automatic Reboot?: Yes Status: General Release Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHCO_15980 Symptoms: PHCO_15980: The internal name for the liblabels shared library was not set. All applications that link with liblabels would carry in their executables the generic liblabels.sl name (as seen by chatr) rather than the more correct, specific liblabels.1 name. The latter naming of the specific version of the library is in keeping with the practice with libc. No coding changes within the library itself are present in this patch. Defect Description: PHCO_15980: The /usr/lib/liblabels.1 did not have an internal name associated with it via the +h option of ld(1). Without use of the +h option, proper version control with this library could not be achieved.

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 PHCO_15980 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHCO_15980.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/PHCO_15980.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/PHCO_15980. 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 PHCO_15980.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/PHCO_15980.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: Note to VVOS application developers: To avoid versioning problems with future VVOS releases, please install this patch and then rebuild all applications that use the liblabels library. Please do this as time warrants prior to any significant upgrades.
