Patch Name: PHNE_11229 Patch Description: s700_800 10.20 J3621AA_APZ B.10.20.02 100BT/9000 patch Creation Date: 97/06/09 Post Date: 97/07/15 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.20 s800: 10.20 Products: J3621AA_APZ B.10.20.02 100BT/9000 GSC Filesets: 100BT-GSC-KRN.100BT-KRN,B.10.20.02 Automatic Reboot?: Yes Status: General Superseded Critical: Yes PHNE_11229: OTHER Changing link address with 100bt makes ARP fail. Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHNE_11229 Symptoms: PHNE_11229: The following symptoms are seen for PHNE_11229. 1. Changing the link address with 100bt makes ARP fail. 2. GSC 100BT driver reports incorrect statistics. 3. Lanadmin shows incorrect (bogus) value for outbound queue on HSC 100BT. 4. Receive performance will not be as good as with this patch. 5. FTP hangs. 6. Problem with 10BT and noheartbeats. 7. Low performance due to IEEE SNAP packets not being logged and going through expensive lanc_logging. 8. Cable disconnect/reconnect interrupts are not always acknowledged. 9. DHCP does not work correctly with GSC 100BT. Defect Description: PHNE_11229: The following defect descriptions are for PHNE_11229. 1. Changing link address with 100bt makes ARP fail. 2. GSC 100BT driver reports incorrect statistics. 3. Lanadmin shows incorrect (bogus) value for outbound queue on HSC 100BT. 4. Modified receive path to increase performance. Use schednetisrmq instead of the older schednetisrsq. 5. Transmit and Receive data structures were not properly zero'ed out during initialization. This caused FTP's to occasionally hang the system. 6. Noheartbeat errors must be disabled when in 10BT mode. Otherwise, output packet counts will not be properly updated. 7. Low performance due to IEEE SNAP packets not being logged and going through expensive lanc_logging. 8. Transmit and Receive interrupts are not acknowledged during cable disconnect/reconnect conditions. 9. Fixed bug in BTLAN3_DO_FAST_IN which failed to check the strip header flag. This caused the GSC 100BT driver to not work correctly with DHCP.

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 PHNE_11229 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHNE_11229.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/PHNE_11229.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/PHNE_11229. 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 PHNE_11229.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/PHNE_11229.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: Ensure that this patch does not overlay driver versions dated July 1,1997 or later. The driver version can be obtained by issuing a 'what' cmd on the file /usr/conf/lib/libbtlan4.a
