Defect Description:
	PHSS_29861:
	Id = HSLco41822
	    Data Protector is failing to access the robotics on
	    Linux. Ioctl function is unsuccessfully repeated 60
	    times and then it fails.

	Resolution:
	    Device major number is checked with fstat, if it is
	    21 (sg device), SCSI command is passed with
	    SCTL_io_linux_SG_driver function. Sending SCSI command
	    with SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl to sg is deprecated.

	Id = HSLco42155
	    When Data Protector tries to load the tape, Media agent
	    aborts session.

	Resolution:
	    Data Protector successfully initializes tape.

	Id = HSLco42415
	    BMA closes too quickly and because of that it does not
	    send the close message to BSM.

	Resolution:
	    An additional sleep with environment variable
	    OB2BMASLEEPBEFORECLOSE is introduced to allow BMA to
	    send close message successfully.

	Id = HSLco42425
	    OmniBack II does not handle error messages properly.

	Resolution:
	    When cleaning tape is loaded into drive with UMA
	    command, OmniBack II reports:

	       "move: Cleaning cartridge installed."

	Id = HSLco42792
	    Binaries are not properly build.

	Resolution:
	    Binaries are properly build.

	Id = HSLco42794
	    Serial numbers for drives are not read properly.
	    Because of this, devbra does not know how to combine
	    drives together with robotics.

	Resolution:
	    SCTL_ReadElementStatusSerial is rewritten so that it
	    supports SCSI-2 and SCSI-3 specifications.

	    Part of SSPUX410_076.

	Id = HSLco42818
	    The failure of trailing filemark write is caused
	    by a hardware problem.The backup media agent error
	    handling in this very specific case is not adequate.

	Resolution:
	    The media is marked as poor and BMA is aborted if the
	    backup fails on last FMwrite.

	Id = HSLco43224
	    Device error notifications are not sent even when
	    device error occurs. Device error notification sending
	    is not implemented in OmniBack II A.04.10.

	Resolution:
	    Device error notification sending is implemented in
	    OmniBack II A.04.10.

	Id = HSLco43261
	    With patch PHSS_28745 user ID for accessing STK library
	    is changed. All ACS Media Agents now access to STK
	    library with unique user ID.

	Resolution:
	    Unique user ID can be changed to logical drive name
	    with setting environment variable OB2USERID=1 in
	    .omnirc file.

	    Part of SSPUX410_081.

	Id = HSLco43308
	    If option "Load Port" is used on  ESL 9000 libraries
	    OmniBack can not load or unload the tape.

	Resolution:
	    With new environment variables OB2MOUNTSLEEP and
	    OB2DISMOUNTSLEEP sleep in seconds before executing
	    load and unload command is added in .omnirc file.

	    Part of SSPUX410_080.

	PHSS_28745:
	Id = HSLco38298
	    In case that reconnect option is used for backup,
	    it is possible that Media Agent fails due to a
	    protocol error.

	Resolution:
	    Protocol between Session Manager and Media Agent is
	    changed in order not to acknowledge normal formatted
	    messages.

	Id = HSLco39535
	    Only device files of the format /dev/rmt/*mn are
	    filtered in devlist_ux.c.

	Resolution:
	    New environment variable OB2BROWSEALLDEVICES is
	    introduced in ".omnirc" file. Possible values are
	    0 (default) and 1. If set to 1 the function will
	    also browse the /dev/rmt/*n device files.

	Id = HSLco40131

	    Meta files are removed although there are still object
	    versions in the Omniback II Database with reference to

	    versions in the Omniback II Database with references
	    to them.

	Id = HSLco41099
	    Backup session on Linux Red Hat fails if IBM 3581 driver
	    is not installed.

	Resolution:
	    In case that IBM 3581 driver is not installed on the
	    system, environment variable OB2NOIBM3581=1 must be
	    added in ".omnirc" file.

	Id = HSLco41118
	    Entry for T9840 and T9940 devices is missing from device

	    All MA agents use logical drive names as user_id when
	    accessing a STK library. Library only accepts unique

	    Tape I/O operation statistics functionality is not

	Resolution:
	    Tape I/O operation statistics functionality was added.
	    To enable it, add the new environment variable
	    "OB2TAPESTATISTICS" to the ".omnirc" file and switch
	    it on (OB2TAPESTATISTICS=1).
	    Tape I/O operation statistics is then logged in

	Resolution:
	    Retry is added in case of EBUSY error. Retry can be

	    case that cleaning light is on. But in some cases
	    this light is still on even after drive is cleaned
	    and OmniBack II repeats cleaning cycle.

	Resolution:
	    New environment variable, "OB2DLTCLEANINGLIGHTCHECK"
	    is added in ".omnirc" file. By default it is set to
	    "0" and cleaning is not performed when cleaning light

	    unloaded tape.

	Resolution:
	    New environment variable OB2NOEJECTCLEANINGTAPE which

	------------------------------------------------------------
	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_29861

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

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \
			-s /tmp/PHSS_29861.depot

	By default swinstall will archive the original software in
	/var/adm/sw/patch/PHSS_29861.  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_29861.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_29861.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k

	Agent client system(s) after the installation of the patch
