Symptoms:
	PHSS_26879:
	Id = HSLco33261  SR:H555007380
	    SAP integration on UNIX clients automatically passes
	    "-u" option.

	Id = HSLco33948  SR:H555007650
	    a) After OmniBack II upgrade from A.03.10 to A.03.50,
	       SAP backup fails with Memory fault.

	    b) SAP objects restore GUI browser fails with the
	       error message:
	        "Cannot browse from root.
	         Please specify starting point."

	PHSS_24988:
	Id = HSLco27737  SR:H555005741
	    Omniback II does not support SAP integration on Linux.

	Id = JAGad82658  SR:8606213466
	    SAP on Oracle 8.1.6 64 bit configuration fails with:

	      "/usr/lib/pa20_64/dld.sl: Unable to find library
	      'libwtc8.sl'".

	Id = HSLco26047 HSLco28867 SR:H555005128 SR:H555006178
	    Although brarhive exit code is not 0, Omniback II
	    reports "Session completed successfully".

	Id = HSLco30814  SR:H555006710
	    Session ends as failed because Omniback II tries
	    to back up non existent SAP redo logs.

	PHSS_22912:
	Id = NSMex03392
	    Brbackup output contains duplicated messages.

	Id = NSMex03419

	    brbackup/brarchive is always started with "-u" option
	    which displays logon information.

	Resolution:
	    brbackup/brarchive options are passed in a file.

	    Part of SSPUX350_073.

	Id = HSLco33948
	    Variable ARG_FILELIST is not set to 0.

	Resolution:
	    ARG_FILELIST is set to 0, in order to properly set
	    ARG_FILELIST's MALLOC.

	PHSS_24988:
	Id = HSLco27737
	    Omniback II does not support SAP integration on Linux.

	Resolution:
	    Omniback II supports SAP integration on Linux.

	Id = JAGad82658
	    Error occurs because omnisap.exe and SAP_template
	    search for 64 bit shared library in wrong path.

	Resolution:
	    Path for ${ORA_HOME}/lib64 is added.

	Id = HSLco26047 HSLco28867
	    Omnisap.exe script on Unix does not exit with
	    brarchive exit code.

	Resolution:
	    Omnisap.exe is changed.

	    Part of SSPUX350_047.

	Id = HSLco30814
	    By design, Omniback II ends session as 'Failed' if
	    there are no objects to back up.

	Resolution:
	    Two new global variables have been introduced:

	      1) SessSucessfullWhenNoObjectsBackedUp=0
	      By setting this variable to 1 user can change the
	      Omniback II behavior in order to end the session
	      as successful when there are no objects backed up.

	      2) TreatScriptReturnAsNormal=<script return>
	      Setting this variable to a certain number instructs
	      Omniback II to treat all the script returns equal
	      to the specified number as normal.

	    Part of SSPUX350_062.

	PHSS_22912:
	Id = NSMex03392
	    Brbackup utility puts empty lines into communication
	    file. Sapback sends these lines to backint which after
	    getting an empty line dumps its previous content to
	    session output.

	Resolution:
	    Fix implemented in sapback and backint prevents
	    duplicating of messages in session output.

	Id = NSMex03419
	    In pre-3.0 versions of OmniBack II file names were
	    stored on the tape in the original case. OBII 3.0
	    and later store file names in lower case and because
	    of that, during restore it assumes that all file
	    names on tape are in lower case. This introduces
	    problems when, for example, a tape from 2.55 system
	    is imported into 3.50 system and a restore is run
	    from such tape.

	Resolution:
	    When comparing names of files which were backed up
	    on the tape, all file names are now converted to
	    lower case, so this doesn't have any effect on new
	    backups (they are already in lower case) but enables
	    restores from pre-3.0 backups of SAP.

	Id = NSMex03601, NSMex03617
	    If brbackup response time is too long for some
	    reason, session will fail with the error:

	      "Brbackup doesn't respond.".

	Resolution:
	    Timeout for brbackup is implemented. OmniBack II
	    reports a warning after waiting for brbackup response
	    for 30 minutes and aborts the session after 2 hours.

	Id = NSMex03690
	    EMC Symmetrix disk balancing for SAP backup is not
	    properly implemented.

	Resolution:
	    Disk balancing is improved.

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_26879

	5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the
	    patch:

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \
			-s /tmp/PHSS_26879.depot

	By default swinstall will archive the original software in
	/var/adm/sw/patch/PHSS_26879.  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_26879.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_26879.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k

Special Installation Instructions:
	PHSS_26879:
	NOTE!
	This Patch has to be installed on the Installation
	Server host.

	The OB2 SAP agent must be redistributed to the SAP
	client system(s) after the installation of the patch
	in order to get the fixes into effect.

	For distribution of the SAP agent, refer to
	the OmniBackII Installation guide.

	NOTE!
	Instructions for manual installation of non HP-UX patches:

	1. Rename the patch:

	   mv PHSS_<number> PHSS_<number>.shar

	2. Then unshar the patch:

	   sh PHSS_<number>.shar.

	During unshar operation an error message will occur due to
	using non HP-UX platform for unshar although everything
	will be done. When the patch is unshared, there will be
	PHSS_<number>.depot and PHSS_<number>.text.

	3. Depot file is a tar package, which should be untared:

	   tar -xvf PHSS_<number>.depot

	There is whole directory structure stored in the package,
	so this tree structure will be created under current
	directory.

	4. Create a temporary directory /tmp/omni_tmp and copy
	appropriate packet.Z from expanded depot file.
	Use packet.Z from OMNI-SAP-P/<OS_TYPE>/A.03.50
	directory, where "OS_TYPE" is one of:

	  dec/alpha/osf1-4, gpl/i386/linux, ibm/rs6000/aix-42,
	  ncr/i386/mp-ras, sco/i386/sco_sv, sco/i386/unixware,
	  sequent/i386/dynix, sgi/mips/irix-62, siemens/r400/sinix,
	  sun/sparc/solaris-26, sun/sparc/sunos.

	5. In the next step one has to copy utils.tar package from
	the OmniBack II installation CD to a temporary directory
	on the non HP-UX machine (for example: /tmp/omni_tmp).
	The utils.tar file can be found on the installation CD
	on the following location:

	/OMNIBACK-II/OMNI-CORE-IS/opt/omni/databases/utils/ \
	<OS_TYPE>/utils.tar

	6. Un-tar the utils.tar package and find the omni_rinst.sh
	installation script. Install the patch locally on the
	non-HP-UX client using this script:

	./omni_rinst.sh <tempdir>/packet.Z <package> <version> \
	 <OS_TYPE> /usr/omni <Cell Server>

	where:
	 <tempdir> - temporary directory where the packet.Z is
	    stored (for example /tmp/omni_tmp)
	 <package> - name of the component (for example SAP)
	 <Cell Server> - one can see this parameter in the
	    /usr/omni/config/cell/cell_server file. Be careful to
	    set the same name as written in cell_server file.

	Following the procedure written above the patch should be
	successfully installed.
