Patch Name: PHSS_7944 Patch Description: s700_800 10.X Enware X Terminal Software B.07.07 July 1996 Creation Date: 97/07/18 Post Date: 96/07/29 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.00 10.01 10.10 10.20 s800: 10.00 10.01 10.10 10.20 Products: ENWARE B.07.00 Filesets: ENWARE.HPXT-ENTRIA,B.07.00 ENWARE.HPXT-ENVIZEX,B.07.00 ENWARE.HPXT-FLOPPY,B.07.00 ENWARE.HPXT-NFS,B.07.00 ENWARE.HPXT-SUPPL,B.07.00 ENWARE.HPXT-XTOUCH,B.07.00 Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Superseded Critical: Yes PHSS_7944: ABORT Users are involuntarily logged out of Vue, CDE, or xdm every four weeks. Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHSS_7944 Symptoms: PHSS_7944: 1. Writing large files to the floppy drive on an Envizex X terminal sometimes produces the message "unable to close file, connection timed out" and the resulting file on the floppy is truncated. 2. Users are involuntarily logged out of Vue, CDE, or xdm every four weeks. 3. The touch-screen driver now supports the Pixel Vision pen-touch screen. Defect Description: PHSS_7944: 1. A combination of an extra delay in the floppy driver and insufficient NFS retransmissions in the host mountfloppy script will cause writes of large floppy files to fail on a busy network. 2. If you have a number of X terminals running vuelogin, dtlogin or xdm from one host computer, you may see the X terminals automatically reset themselves approximately every four weeks. This reset occurs due to a software timer rollover problem. Every few weeks at exactly the same local time HP X terminals generate XDMCP keep-alive packets continuously for 3 minutes. If the host computer cannot reply to all the keep-alive messages in time, the X terminals will assume that the host is dead and terminate the Vue, CDE, or xdm session. 3. The pen-touch support is new functionality added with this patch.

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_7944 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_7944.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_7944.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_7944. 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_7944.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_7944.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: If you use the automount daemon to NFS mount Envizex X terminal floppy drives instead of the default mountfloppy script you should edit the /etc/auto.hpxtfd file (or the equivalent NIS map) to attempt more NFS retransmissions. The line in the file should end up looking like: * -soft,retrans=6,timeo=50 &:/hpxtfd
