SR 1653174953 System panics related to NetBIOS/LMU 2. SR 1653194852 RFC-NetBIOS caused Data Page fault system panic 3. SR 5003346635 Memory Leak problem in NetBIOS for LM/U on 10.01 system 4. SR 4701338780 NetBIOS cached names aging fails if NetBIOS is stopped & restarted 5. SR 4701339333 NetBIOS does not send all session data to user space App. 6. 4701327627 NetBIOS loopback driver lmxloop.a caused Data Page fault system panic 7. 1653194837 NetBIOS loopback driver lmxloop.a caused Data Page fault system panic Defect Description: PHNE_9637: 1. SR 1653174953 The panics were observed in 2 different functions of NetBIOS code. In the first case, the session structure had a pointer to already freed command structure. 2. SR 1653194852 NetBIOS was accessing memory that had already been freed. 3. SR 5003346635 NetBIOS fails to free memory allocated for internal data structures when a name query failed. 4. SR 4701338780 NetBIOS failed to reset a global variable to 0 when it was stopped and restared. 5. SR 4701339333 NetBIOS failed zero out an internal data structure when processing session data. 6. SR 4701327627 The loopback driver failed to check if the q->next was not NULL before using that field to pass a STREAMS message. 7.

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_9637 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHNE_9637.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_9637.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_9637. 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_9637.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_9637.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: SINGLE_USER SUBSYSTEM_SHUT RFC-NETBIOS must be halted for this patch to install. The LAN Manager for UNIX Server should be stopped with the command "net stop server" and then RFC-NETBIOS should be stopped with the command "nbutil -N stop". This is a FULL product replacement. Original files are not backed up, or saved.
