Patch Name: PHCO_16724 Patch Description: s700_800 10.20 lpspool subsystem cumulative patch Creation Date: 98/10/26 Post Date: 98/11/09 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.20 s800: 10.20 Products: N/A Filesets: PrinterMgmt.LP-SPOOL Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Superseded Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHCO_16724 Symptoms: PHCO_16724: 1. kill -9 on interface script and other lp processes causes a corruption in the pstatus file entries. 2. lp does not hard link data files to the spool directory. PHCO_16294: lpsched deadlocks on remote printers when remote system is down. PHCO_14431: 1. LP spooler needs to support P405 and HP5000D640 model printers. 2. The value of LANG env variable is improperly passed to the model script PHCO_14029: 1. If you submit more than 52 files lp does not remove those above 52. 2. lpsched -v writes strange strings in log file if LANG is set. 3. lpsched -v intermittently stops by SIGSEGV in catgets if LANG is set. PHCO_13133: 1)incomplete lpstat output when -a/-p option used with printer name and class 2)After PHCO_11462, moving request with lpalt leaves data file in req dir PHCO_12894: 1. Jobs submitted to a LP remote printer that points to a "disabled" remote HPDPS printer are discarded. 2. When more than one jobs, whose job sequence numbers are the same, are simultaneously submitted from the same host to the same remote printer through RFC1179 protocol, rlpdaemon(1M) fails to spool the jobs on the remote system due to data/control file name collision. 3. All jobs from any HPDPS printers are spooled under the /usr/spool/lp/request/PDRequest by rlpdaemon(1M). This single PDRequest directory increases the chance of file name collision due to simultaneous job submission. PHCO_11462: 1. Cancelling a lp job with empty control file clears the whole queue. 2. Printer gets disabled on cancelling a printing job. PHCO_10891: 1. "lpstat -i -o" doesn't inhibit the reporting of the remote status if a HPDPS printer name is specified. This problem happens only when the HPDPS patch, PHCO_10608, is installed on the system. Because of this, CDE print manager doesn't work correctly for HPDPS printers. PHCO_10749: 1. LP-spool hang or qstatus corrupt when /var full log says:Bogus request 2. Parent lpsched hangs when lpalt is used to move a request. 3. Model scripts does not handle SIGTERM any more. 4. lpsched introduced 5 sec delay between prints at 10.20 PHCO_8488: 1. lpsched hangs under FIFO full condition 2. Printers go idle even when requests are present in the queue 3. Jobs not printed when remote host(IBM) immediately saps connection. 4. If a BSD system spooler sends a '\001' to rlp(1) after the control file has been sent, rlp(1) simply ignores the '\001' and removes the entry. 5. lp, cancel, and lpstat hang when forwarding jobs or requests to HPDPS. 6. Implicit requirement that a rlpdeamon client's remote printer name must be the same as its local pseudo name. Defect Description: PHCO_16724: 1. During spooler startup, the write offset in the pstatus file was not updated properly. 2. Complete path was not given to the link() call in lp(1) which resulted in the failure to link data files into the spooler area. PHCO_16294: lpsched used to hang intermittently for remote requests when remote printer/system was down. PHCO_14431: 1. The model scripts corresponding to P405, HP5000D640 were not there. 2. Since the LANG variable was incorrectly passed to the control file, the "Invalid options" error message was appearing on the banner. PHCO_14029: 1. Spooler was only deleting the data files whose names start with "d". 2. with LANG set, lpsched was improperly handling repeated calls to catgets(). 3. Due to sharing of same fd's of catalogue message files between parent and child processes in lpsched, a SIGSEGV used to cause coredumps intermittently. PHCO_13133: 1) lpstat was not giving the correct output for certain sequences of printer/class lists due to incorrect referencing of both pstatus and qstatus files. 2) lpsched was not clearing the data files present in the spooler directory due to descripencies in the names of these files, caused by the lpalt. PHCO_12894: 1. Jobs submitted to a LP remote printer that points to a "disabled" remote HPDPS printer are discarded. 2. When more than one jobs, whose job sequence numbers are the same, are simultaneously submitted from the same host to the same remote printer through RFC1179 protocol, rlpdaemon(1M) fails to spool the jobs on the remote system due to data/control file name collision. 3. All jobs from any HPDPS printers are spooled under the /usr/spool/lp/request/PDRequest by rlpdaemon(1M). This single PDRequest directory increases the chance of file name collision due to simultaneous job submission. PHCO_11462: 1. Cancelling a lp job with empty control file clears the whole queue. 2.

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_16724 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHCO_16724.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_16724.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_16724. 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_16724.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_16724.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: None
