PHSS_8658: Aserver dies when the system is overloaded. PHSS_7783: Audio doesn't work so well on 710's Invoking the volume control, reducing or increasing the volume or changing the output channels to enable headphone or external speakers seems to hang the Aserver process. Doubleclicking the same sample audio file again or invoking the audio_editor and trying to create audio output again fails. send_sound utility also failing: no more output to be heard. Cannot record sound using the mic input on 712s and J200s. Defect Description: PHSS_9775: Aserver can create a file with bad permissions. PHSS_8658: Under heavy load, the audio library was taking >8 seconds to connect to the Aserver. When the connection was not completed, NCS became confused. PHSS_7783: Audio on 710 fails badly. Problem with latency changes. Problem solved by merely opening audioCtrl device and keeping open as was done previously.

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_9775 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHSS_9775.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_9775.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_9775. 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_9775.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_9775.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: None
