Patch Name: PHNE_9555 Patch Description: s700_800 10.20 SNAplus Common R4.4 cumulative patch Creation Date: 97/02/03 Post Date: 97/04/07 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.20 s800: 10.20 Products: SNAplusLink R4.4 Filesets: SNAP-COMMON.SNAP-COMMON Automatic Reboot?: Yes Status: General Superseded Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHNE_9555 Symptoms: PHNE_9555: (1) 1653180323 APPC Application fails to pick up incoming attach after running for some time. (2) 1653168591 MC_ALLOCATE fails after (x)snapmanage has deactivated the session. (3) 1653191924 On R4.2 customer configured incoming peer SDLC connection. DTR was raised but instead of frames being received RX overrun and Lost interrupt events occured. Short frames could be received, frames could be transmitted. (4) 1653195065 Symptoms of problem: APPC TP can fail intermittently, when sna.aud flips. Only occurs if TP has a SIGCHLD catcher. (5) 1653172585 The problem was actually due to floating values in the configuration file - and so the fix is to the config program. When the fix is shipped to the customer, it will be necessary for them to load their config file into the new config program and then save it. (6) 4701335000 Customer may get a variety of communication path errors on any of the services, but this is most likely to hit those who are running a large number of TPs. Defect Description: PHNE_9555: (1) 1653180323 Reset the alarm timer only when the signal catcher has finished to avoid recursively entering signal catcher. (2) 1653168591 Snapmanage was resetting session limits for Dependent LUs causing any session recovery attempts to fail. (3) 1653191924 Problem was that the HMOD was being primed with a frame size of 5, the configured frame size in the connection record was not reflected in the link record. Altered the link record to point to link data of the first connection in all cases (already done for Host links). Also sent fix to HMOD. (4) 1653195065 Details of fix applied is to ensure SIGCHLD not sent to TP when it causes the sna.aud file to flip. (5) 1653172585 Ensure that the area of storage used for the session securit information is zero'd before we start processing the information entered in the dialogue box. (6) 4701335000 When the customer has used up all of the Service Table entries, the node (PU2.1) will be unable to handle any more requests from the services causing various types of errors.

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_9555 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHNE_9555.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_9555.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_9555. 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_9555.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_9555.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: Stop SNA daemon before installing patch (snapstop daemon). After installing the patch start the SNA daemon (snapstart daemon).
