Patch Name: PHSS_11482 Patch Description: s700_800 10.20 Software Distributor cumulative patch Creation Date: 97/09/19 Post Date: 97/10/03 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.20 s800: 10.20 Products: N/A Filesets: SW-DIST.RUPDATE SW-DIST.SD-AGENT SW-DIST.SD-CMDS SW-DIST.SD-ENG-A-MAN Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Superseded Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHSS_11482 Symptoms: PHSS_11482: This SD patch fixes the following symptoms. These numbers correspond to Defect Description numbers: 1. Swinstall can hang when Glance is running. 2. Scheduled jobs can fail due to inability to save session files such as swinstall.last. 3. Swacl fails to see depot products that contain empty subproducts. 4. Disk space analysis can be wrong when installing patches. 5. The fpkg2swpkg program has incorrect ownership and permissions. 6. Swinstall can fail to make RPC connections when a hostname is longer than 8 characters. 7. Swjob fails to see any jobs on a system when hostname contains a dash character. Defect Description: PHSS_11482: This shows details of problems fixed by this patch: 1. A swinstall target agent could hang when swinstall Interactive User Interface was used and TCP protocol was used. This was more likely when Glance was running at the same time swinstall GUI was being used. This patch fixes swagent to avoid the hang. 2. Swagentd did not reset certain environmental variables when starting jobs that were scheduled by non-superuser. This patch corrects the behavior. 3. Swacl could not operate on any product that contained an empty subproduct. This patch fixes swacl to see all products. 4. Scripts in HP-UX patch filesets reserved disk space using units different than used internally in SD. This patch modifies SD to correctly handle disk space numbers supplied by scripts in HP-UX patches. 5. This patch fixes ownership and permissions of the fpkg2swpkg program. 6. SD commands sometimes used the uname function to determine local hostname, truncating the SD copy of local hostname to 8 characters. This patch fixes SD commands to always use the gethostname function, so full length hostname is always used. 7. On a system with hostname containing a dash character, jobs were stored incorrectly. The swjob command can not see those stored jobs. This patch fixes SD commands to store jobs correctly when hostname contains a dash character. Swjob will see all jobs created after this patch.

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 PHSS_11482 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_11482.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/PHSS_11482.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/PHSS_11482. 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 PHSS_11482.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/PHSS_11482.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: This patch may be applied to both the standard Software Distributor (SD-UX) shipped with HP-UX 10.20 and the OpenView Software Distributor (SD-OV) revision A.01.02.
