Patch Name: PHSS_16398 Patch Description: s700_800 10.X OV ITO4.0X Windows NT ANSE Agent Patch Creation Date: 98/10/27 Post Date: 98/10/28 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Products: OpenView IT/Operations 4.0 ITO-ANSE Filesets: OVOPC-CLT.OVOPC-NT-CLT Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Superseded Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHSS_16398 Symptoms: PHSS_16398: - The 'opcdcode.exe' tool requires full path of file to be decoded. - Return values of some NT instrumentation progs are wrong. - The 'itoreg.exe' command can't read NT 4.0 current config registry. - Monitor programs are not found if there is a variable in the path location. - The <$MSG_ID> variable is not set correctly in monitor conditions. - The NT agent was missing the 'Agents Sends Alive Packets' functionality. This is now supported on NT 4.0. - Scheduled actions are scheduled for the following month if weekday is specified. - The Monitor agent cannot handle multiple identical objects in perflib (corrupted NT registry). - Tracing of performance monitoring was not very useful. - The Monitor agent returns problem for '.cmd' batch files. - The 'itouser.exe /local' tool sometimes loops. - The Logfile encapsulator aborts during agent stop when no eventlogs are configured. - Every time the agent starts and the trap template is assigned, there is a message coming to the browser. - Usage of the opcmsg() API may cause the application to abort. - Message agent sometimes stays in the buffering state forever. - The logfile encapsulator might coredump when tracing is turned on and very long messages are generated. - The logfile encapsulator suddenly starts growing to the kernel limit and coredumps. PHSS_16115: - Lookup of Backup Domain Controllers during installation causes additional network traffic. - Setup program has problems with NetServerEnum API in some environments. - Installation on Domain Controllers causes problems with password policy. - Installation server installation to multi homed host does not send the IP address. - Standalone system tries to find its Domain Controller. - Agent must be restarted to enable security settings. - Monitor agent cannot monitor NTPerfMon\System\System Up Time. - Scheduled actions are not executed at 00:xx in April. - Opcle aborts for SAP event 23334. - Opcle sets exec path with wrong path delimiters. - At system boot, agent reports some error messages about EventLog and opcle aborts when agent is started before the EventLog service. - Suppression of identical messages does not work for failed logins. - Truncated Messages are handled by the Logfile Encapsulator before the line is finished. - Logfile encapsulator aborts when eventlog refers to nonexistent variable.

Conflicts: PHSS_16397 Patch Dependencies: None Hardware Dependencies: None Other Dependencies: OVOPC-SEC.OVOPC-SEC-CLT Supersedes: PHSS_16115 Equivalent Patches: None Patch Package Size: 3790 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_16398 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_16398.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_16398.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_16398. 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_16398.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_16398.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-ANSE releases: A.04.0x o This patch can't be installed on an ITO server without the ITO-ANSE bundle installed. If you don't have it, use the equivalent non-ANSE patch. 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_16398 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_16398.depot It is recommended that you move the PHSS_16398.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_16398.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_16398 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_16398
