Patch Name: PHSS_24423 Patch Description: s700_800 10.X OV OB3.10 patch - CORE packet Creation Date: 01/07/12 Post Date: 01/07/12 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.03.10 Filesets: OMNIBACK-II.OMNI-CORE-IS,A.03.10 OMNIBACK-II.OMNI-CORE,A.03.10 Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Release Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHSS_24423 Symptoms: PHSS_24423: Id = NSMbb37117 Util_oracle8.exe complains that Oracle is not linked with OmniBack II for backup. Id = NSMex03730 Following message appears when trying to start backup: "Could not connect to inet in order to start VBDA". Id = NSMex03956 ".util ISINFO" returns corrupted bytes_to_be_received size. Id = NSMex04271 During scheduled purge error message is displayed: "Bad catalog access for message #3137 in set 11". Id = NSMex04395 Upgrade of AIX client fails with error: "Unexpected untar problem". PHSS_23095: Id = NSMex03937 User can gain an unauthorized access to an OmniBack client. PHSS_21770: Id = NSMbb25274 MoM GUI reports "No license available" even if there are some licenses installed. Id = NSMex02911 Removing a volser results in error message, although the volser has been successfully removed from the database: "Cannot erase in this pool!" Id = NSMex03372 A large number of databases configured on the database client (>128) results in an error message: "hostname.domain "OBJECT NAME" Time: [61:1005] Got unexpected close from OmniBack II Inet on hostname.domain." Id = NSMex02903 OmniBack II BSM returns "Completed" for failed Sybase backup session. Id = NSMex03065 If there are more databases inside a barlist, and one does not exist, the session fails, and all the subsequent databases are not backed up at all. PHSS_19523: Id = HSLco16368 HP SureStoreE Disk Array XP256 is not supported by OmniBack II to perform a split mirror backup. This patch does not fix any other problem. Defect Description: PHSS_24423: Id = NSMbb37117 Library $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libobk.so is not properly linked and the error message is incorrect. Resolution: A proper message is added to message catalog. Id = NSMex03730 When Backup Session Manager is unable to respond to inet in default timeout, inet returns info string. Resolution: Additional messages are logged to inet.log and debug.log. Id = NSMex03956 Logging messages redirection does not work properly. Resolution: Exporting VUE variable is added. Id = NSMex04271 The message 3137 is not defined in the catalog. Resolution: The appropriate message is added to catalog. Id = NSMex04395 Shared libraries libdc and libde have to be removed before upgrade of AIX clients. Due to changes in OmniBack II linking process, extensions for the libraries are changed, so the libraries are not removed during the installation. Resolution: Correct shared libraries are removed during the upgrade process. PHSS_23095: Id = NSMex03937 User can gain an unauthorized access to an OmniBack client. Resolution: Code was changed to avoid unauthorised access. To preserve the previous behaviour, a variable must be set in the /opt/omni/.omnirc file (not recommended): OB2INETSECUEREXEC = 1 Part of SSPUX310_047. PHSS_21770: Id = NSMbb25274 If MoM GUI cannot find a MoM license installed, it reports that there are no license available. This is misleading if there are some other licenses installed, other than MoM. Resolution: The MoM GUI now reports that no MoM license is available if it cannot find it. Id = NSMex02911 An error is reported no matter if the volser remove operation fails or succeeds. Resolution: If the remove operation is successful, the error message is not reported. Part of SSPUX310_003. Id = NSMex03372 For each database two processes are started on the client system, which all take inet connection. Inet connection is limited to 256 for bar agents, and this limit is exceeded. Resolution: The inet limit for bar connections has been increased to 1024. This enables up to 512 databases to be backed up in one barlist. Id = NSMex02903 If a Sybase backup session fails, the exit code of the session is 0 (Completed) instead of <>0 (Failed). Resolution: Fix is implemented in ob2sybase and message catalog. Part of SSPUX310_002. Id = NSMex03065 OmniBack II stops the backup session if one of the databases does not exist at the time it's backup starts. This results in all the subsequent databases not being backed up either. Resolution: If one database backup fails, all the other waiting database backups will not be aborted. Part of SSPUX310_011. PHSS_19523: Id = HSLco16368 Currently OmniBack II only supports the Split Mirror Backup concept with EMC Symmetrix. After the introduction of the new HP SureStoreE Disk Array XP256, it was requested that OmniBack II also supports this disk array with the split mirror backup concept. This requires to support Oracle 8.0.x and SAP R/3 in this concept as well and in addition a new manual is needed. Resolution: The SureStoreE Agent (SSEA) was developed for HP-UX to control the SureStoreE disk array. The Backup Session Manager, INET on HP-UX, and the NT GUI were enhanced and in addition Oracle 8.0.x and SAP integrations are supported. Also the manual "HP OpenView OmniBack II HP SureStore E Disk Array XP256 Configuration Guide" will be released.

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_24423 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_24423.depot By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/patch/PHSS_24423. 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_24423.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_24423.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: PHSS_24423: NOTE! This Patch has to be installed on all Installation server hosts. Because the Core package is a part of all agents, all client packages need to be redistributed after this patch was installed on the installation server in order to enable the changes (Disk Agents, Media Agents, ...). NOTE! In order to enable the HP SurStoreE Agent (SSEA) functionality, a license-to-use (B7023AA) must be installed. In addition, at least the following OB2 patches are required: PHSS_21650/PHSS_21651 - Cell Server patch PHSS_20111/PHSS_20112 - Oracle8 integration patch PHSS_21734/PHSS_21735 - SSEA integration patch PHSS_21732/PHSS_21733 - SAP integration patch OMNIBACK_00012 - Windows NT Some of these above mentioned patches may be superseded by a newer patch.
