Patch Name: PHNE_8910 Patch Description: s700_800 10.10 SNAplus2-Link R5 cumulative patch Creation Date: 96/11/22 Post Date: 96/12/16 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.10 s800: 10.10 Products: SNAplus2-Link R5 Filesets: SNAplus2-Link.SNAP2-LINK Automatic Reboot?: Yes Status: General Superseded Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHNE_8910 Symptoms: PHNE_8910: (1) 4701341289 Every time CPI-C TP terminates normally we get an error log (exception) type 2-3. (2) 1653192419 If the LUWID on a received attach does not contain a fully qualified LU name it will be rejected. (3) 5003343921 If remote station not on local FDDI ring, we reissue a second TEST frame 0.25 seconds after the first TEST. This is bounced by DLPI, and an error 12288 - 18 is logged (error=1, DLPI primitive=45) (4) 1653187203 The host suddenly sends UNBIND with 'normal end of session' type just after exchanging STSN request/response. (5) 4701325498 The SNAplus2 product at MR does not support autoactivation of sessions. Sessions are activated upon demand instead of when the link is brought up. The impact of this is minor, except for customers using APPC or CPI-C TPs which use the AP_IMMEDIATE return control type on their allocate verbs. These allocate verbs fail if the sessions they are expecting to use are not active. A patch will be provided in the near future which allows preconfiguration of an autoactivation limit for APPC modes. This patch will allow SNAplus2 APPC and CPI-C TPs which use the AP_IMMEDIATE return control type to function just as they did on SNAplus. If you have TPs which use the AP_IMMEDIATE return control type, you should install this patch after installing the SNAplus2 software. Defect Description: PHNE_8910: (1) 4701341289 Logging of this event is not now done to the error file. The error case originally looked for is logged elsewhere. (2) 1653192419 LUWID will not now be rejected if the LU NAME is not fully qualified. (3) 5003343921 Some routers do not require source routing information to function and will continue to work correctly - however, even with this patch some customers will still be unable to connect to stations on remote rings. When the FDDI driver team add source routing support to the HP-UX driver, this fix must be removed. (4) 1653187203 The RU data on a STSN (Set/Test Sequence Number) response generated by SNAP-IX is set to an invalid value. (5) 4701325498 The SNAplus2 product at MR does not support autoactivation of sessions. Sessions are activated upon demand instead of when the link is brought up. The impact of this is minor, except for customers using APPC or CPI-C TPs which use the AP_IMMEDIATE return control type on their allocate verbs.

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_8910 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHNE_8910.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_8910.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_8910. 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_8910.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_8910.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: Stop SNA daemon before installing patch (snap stop). After installing the patch start the SNA daemon (snap start).
