Patch Name: PHSS_16713 Patch Description: s700_800 10.X OV OB2.55 patch - SAP packet Creation Date: 98/12/02 Post Date: 98/12/15 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.00 10.01 10.10 10.20 s800: 10.00 10.01 10.10 10.20 Products: OmniBackII A.02.55 Filesets: OMNIBACK-II.OMNI-SAP-P Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Superseded Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHSS_16713 Symptoms: PHSS_16713: Id = NSMex01373 SAP backup reports '#ERROR ' if a file is bigger than 2 GB. Id = NSMex01445 Backup of some SAP files fails with an error "Brbackup doesn't respond." Id = NSMex01638 SAP restore query via backint is very slow. Id = NSMex01735 SAP Restore fails with the error message: "ABORT request from RSM (ERR: Bar object not found in the database.)" Id = NSMbb22035 Sparse files corrupted after restore. PHSS_14347: Id = NSMex01145 Restore of archive logs failed with Query incomplete/failed (Object not found.). Id = NSMex01140 SAP restore to the host different than the backed up host failed. Id = NSMex00831 SAP backup failed with: "No Backup utility ID or ID longer than 16 characters." Defect Description: PHSS_16713: Id = NSMex01373 On systems that support files bigger than 2Gb, the SAP integration backup reports an error for each file bigger than 2 GB. As a result these files are not backed up. Part of SSP255_67. Id = NSMex01445 Backup of some SAP files fails with an error "Brbackup doesn't respond." This happens due to long response time from brbackup (10 minutes). This time-out is now increased to 1 hour. Now, if brbackup does not respond within 30 minutes, the sapback process will report the following warning: "Sapback hasn't got confirmation from brbackup for file %s for 30 minutes" After 1 hour the backup will skip this file and continue with the next file. Part of SSP255_72. |Id = NSMex01638 Backint queries for all 256 SAP sets instead of checking for the number of needed queries. This causes the SAP restore to be very slow. Part of SSP255_100. Id = NSMex01735 SAP restore of a file from the first set of backed up files failed with an error: "Bar object not found in the database." Part of SSP255_102. Id = NSMbb22035 Restore of sparse files produces corrupted files. Although the files are backed up correctly, restore will cause sparse files corruption (data changed, size of file reduced signifficantly). PHSS_14347: Id = NSMex01145 SAP restore of archive logs failed because session was not found in the OmniBack II DB if during backup there was more than one backint started. Part of SSP255_28. Id = NSMex01140 SAP restore failed if the hostname of the target host was different than the backed up hostname while the object name was the same. The problem has been observed in the Service Guard environment. Part of SSP255_33. Id = NSMex00831 SAP backup failed with: "No Backup utility ID or ID longer than 16 characters." The problem appeared if parallelism was bigger than 25. Part of SSP255_47.

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_16713 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_16713.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_16713.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_16713. 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_16713.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_16713.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: NOTE! Patch has to be installed on the Cell Server host. The SAP-R3 packet needs to be redistributed to the appropriate systems, where the SAP-R3 Clients are installed, from within the "Cell Administration - Install" window of the OmnibackII graphical user interface before the patch modifications take effect. NOTE! Be sure that no SAP-R3 backup or restore is running while you distribute the packet to the SAP-R3 client. The patch includes the following Site Specific Patches: SSP255_28 SSP255_33 SSP255_47 SSP255_67 SSP255_72 SSP255_100 SSP255_102
