Patch Name: PHSS_22373 Patch Description: s700_800 10.X OV OB3.50 patch - MA packet Creation Date: 01/03/02 Post Date: 01/03/06 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.03.50 Filesets: OMNIBACK-II.OMNI-ACS-P,A.03.50 OMNIBACK-II.OMNI-DAS-P,A.03.50 OMNIBACK-II.OMNI-HPUX-P,A.03.50 OMNIBACK-II.OMNI-OTHUX-P,A.03.50 Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Superseded Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHSS_22373 Symptoms: PHSS_22373: Id = JAGad15060 Backup fails with an error: "Cannot unload the drive "0,0,2,3" STATUS_LOCKID_NOT_FOUND" Id = NSMbb36866 Importing OmniBack II A.02.55 media with omnistream objects to any later version of OmniBack II corrupts the Monitor GUI. Id = NSMex03031 Restoring OmniStorage objects fails with an error: "Can not backspace block ([5] I/O error)". Id = NSMex03297 SCSI-II Library does not work on Sun Solaris platform. Id = NSMex03391 Backup to DLT8000 drive fails with an error: "Can not open device, errno 6.". Id = NSMex03613 Backup to MO media fails with an error: "Medium has no capacity.". Id = HSLco21988 OmniBack II ACS Integration is not supported on Sun Solaris operating system. Id = HSLco22425 OmniBack II ACS Integration is not supported on IBM AIX operating system. Id = NSMex03519 Restore to a NetWare Novell system hangs. Id = NSMex02763 SCSI Library cannot unload DLT tape cartridge after the tape rewind. Id = NSMex02816 Device intermittently report an I/O error and the tape gets stuck in the drive. Id = NSMex03792 STK9840 and DLT8000 configuration fail on Sun Solaris. Id = NSMex03734, NSMex03897 Blank tapes are causing duplicates in the Media Management database. Defect Description: PHSS_22373: Id = JAGad15060 If any media management operation (scan or init, for example) is started during a backup to STK Silo Library, Media Management Agent fails and unlocks the drive. When the backup is finished, Backup Media Agent tries to unlock drive and fails as it is already unlocked by Media Management Agent. Resolution: Media Management Agent does not unlock the drive that it failed to lock. Id = NSMbb36866 Incorrect conversion of object's backup type from OmniBack II A.02.55 tape format causes GUI to display senseless messages in "Backup type" field. Resolution: Conversion of OmniBack II A.02.55 tape format improved. Id = NSMex03031 Incorrect positioning to a requested block position causes restore failure. Resolution: Repositioning is implemented in Restore Media Agent. Id = NSMex03297 sst driver does not work on 64-bit Sun Solaris system. Resolution: New sst driver sst.64 is added to package. Id = NSMex03391 Backup to DLT8000 drives that are connected to HP-UX systems class higher than L fails with an error: "Can not open device, errno 6.". Resolution: The problem can be solved by specifying environment variable OB2DEVSLEEP in /opt/omni/.omnirc file as follows: OB2DEVSLEEP= where value is between 5 and 20. Id = NSMex03613 OmniBack fails to calculate MO medium capacity for MO devices connected to a HP-UX system with "HPPB" bus. Resolution: Capacity calculating improved. Id = HSLco21988 OmniBack II ACS Integration is not supported on Sun Solaris operating system. Resolution: OmniBack II ACS Integration is supported on Sun Solaris operating system. Please see Special Installation Instructions. Id = HSLco22425 OmniBack II ACS Integration is not supported on IBM AIX operating system. Resolution: OmniBack II ACS Integration is supported on IBM AIX operating system. Please see Special Installation Instructions. Id = NSMex03519 Prior to closing connection to a Novell NetWare Media Agent client the connection is flipped to asynchronous mode which causes restore to hang. Resolution: Setting the environment variable OB2ASYNCHCLOSE to 1 assures connection hang not to happen. Id = NSMex02763 SCSI Library can not unload DLT tape cartridge after the tape rewind in case previous offline operation failed. Resolution: Media Agent now checks the offline operation exit status before unloading the medium. Id = NSMex02816 If a rewind or offline operation fails after an I/O error, the tape will get stuck in the drive. Resolution: With setting OB2REWINDRETRY and OB2REWINDSLEEP variables in the .omnirc file on the Media Agent host, the rewind/offline will retry if it fails. Id = NSMex03792 STK9840 and DLT8000 are not correctly recognized during the configuration on Sun Solaris system. Resolution: STK9840 and DLT8000 can be properly configured on Sun Solaris systems using OmniBack II 3.50. Please see Special Installation Instructions. Id = NSMex03734, NSMex03897 If Media Agent is unable to read Medium Header ID, it report new Medium ID which causes duplicates to appear in the Media Management database. Resolution: If Media Agent is unable to read Medium Header ID then the buffer for ID is reset to 0.

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_22373 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_22373.depot By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/patch/PHSS_22373. 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_22373.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_22373.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: PHSS_22373: NOTE! This Patch has to be installed on the Installation Server host. The OB2 Media Agent must be redistributed to the Media Agent client system(s) after the installation of the patch in order to get the fixes into effect. For distribution of the Media Agent, refer to the OmniBackII Installation guide. NOTE! Patch PHSS_22373/PHSS_22374 introduces OmniBack II ACS integration on Sun Solaris and IBM AIX platforms. In order to complete installation successfully, CORE patch PHSS_22914/PHSS_22915 has to be installed. NOTE! For connecting of DLT8000 and STK9840, install following (or later) SCSI Tape Driver (ST) patches: Solaris 6 : 105847-08 Solaris 7 : 107460-08 Solaris 8 : 108725-04 In case that there is a Solaris 6 system with Media Agent and a DLT8000 connected to it, then add the following lines to the "tape-config-list" section of the /kernel/drv/st.conf file: tape-config-list= "QUANTUM DLT8000", "Quantum DLT8000", "DLT8k-data", DLT8k-data = 1,0x38,0,0x1D639,4,0x84, 0x85, 0x88, 0x89, 3; For Solaris 7 and 8 no additional action is needed after the mentioned patches are installed.
