Patch Name: PHSS_14250 Patch Description: s700_800 10.X OV ITO4.0X DC/OSx Agent Patch Creation Date: 98/03/06 Post Date: 98/03/24 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.00 10.01 10.10 10.20 s800: 10.00 10.01 10.10 10.20 Products: OpenView IT/Operations 4.0 Filesets: OVOPC-CLT-ENG.OVOPC-PYR-CLT Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Superseded Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHSS_14250 Symptoms: PHSS_14250: - ITO agent produced core if LC_CTYPE environment variable was set on anything but different than empty string " " This patch introduces a fix so that any LC_* variable and LANG variable can be set at any valid value. Valid values can be seen on each system by command "locale -a" - Agents may not startup automatically after a reboot because the llbd is not running. This patch introduces a modified startup script that checks for a running llbd and adds some wait cycles in case it is not yet up. - opcmon is writing into monagtp and that opcmona is not using it. Write call from opcmon and opcapi is now removed. - multiple opcmsg-tmpl get intermixed condition processing The msgi accidentially freed memory it was still referencing in the list of messages that were later sent to the server. The result were either totally corrupted messages, or simply messages with wrong attributes. With this patch, this severe malfunction is solved.

Supersedes: None Equivalent Patches: None Patch Package Size: 3350 KBytes Installation Instructions: Please review all instructions and the Hewlett-Packard SupportLine User Guide or your Hewlett-Packard support terms and conditions for precautions, scope of license, restrictions, and, limitation of liability and warranties, before installing this patch. ------------------------------------------------------------ 1. 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_14250 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_14250.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_14250.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_14250. 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_14250.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_14250.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: BEFORE LOADING THIS PATCH... o You may use this patch with the following official ITO releases: A.04.0x o DO NOT use this patch with older releases of OpC or ITO, for example versions A.01.X, A.02.X or A.03.X. o This patch provides the HP OV IT/Operations Intelligent Agent to be used with a ITO 4.0x Management Server system, Oracle, English and Japanese version. (A) Patch Installation Instructions ------------------------------- (A1) Install the patch, following the standard installation instructions. Please review all instructions and the Hewlett-Packard SupportLine User Guide or your Hewlett-Packard support terms and conditions for precautions, scope of license restrictions and limitation of liability and warranties, before installing this patch. ------------------------------------------------------ 1. Back up your system before installing a patch. (you may use opc_backup) 2. Login as root. 3. Copy the patch to your /tmp directory and unshar it: # cd /tmp # sh PHSS_14250 4. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: NOTE: MAKE SURE THAT NO AGENT OF THE PLATFORM ADDRESSED BY THIS PATCH IS DISTRIBUTED (either from the ITO Administrator's GUI or from command line using inst.sh) WHILE RUNNING SWINSTALL. # swinstall -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_14250.depot It is recommended that you move the PHSS_14250.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_14250.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k NOTE: This patch must be installed on the ITO Management Server system, NOT on an ITO Managed Node directly. Changes will take effect on managed nodes by means of ITO Software Distribution (using 'Force Update' if there is already an agent installed on the managed node). See chapter 2 of the ITO Administrator's Reference manual for more information. (B) Patch Deinstallation Instructions --------------------------------- (B1) To deinstall the patch PHSS_14250 run swremove: NOTE: MAKE SURE THAT NO AGENT OF THE PLATFORM ADDRESSED BY THIS PATCH IS DISTRIBUTED (either from the ITO Administrator's GUI or from command line using inst.sh) WHILE RUNNING SWREMOVE. # swremove PHSS_14250
