SUMMARY OF INCIDENTS FIXED BY THE PATCH
---------------------------------------
Patch ID: 6.1.1.100
* 3773549 (3773547) Data corruption is observed inside OVM for SPARC logical
domain in some scenarios when the logical domain is managed using LDom agent.


DETAILS OF INCIDENTS FIXED BY THE PATCH
---------------------------------------
This patch fixes the following Symantec incidents:

Patch ID: 6.1.1.100

* 3773549 (Tracking ID: 3773547)

SYMPTOM:
Data corruption is observed inside OVM for SPARC logical domain in
some scenarios when the logical domain is managed using LDom agent.

DESCRIPTION:
When the offline and clean operations are invoked for LDom agent,
the LDom agent first performs ldm stop operation. In some scenarios, the logical
domain may be in process of shutting down even after the command has completed.
In such cases,  the agent invokes the force stop operation on the logical
domain. Force stop on logical domain may cause the domain to stop immediately
without performing the file system sync operation, which may cause data corruption.

RESOLUTION:
The offline and clean operations of LDom agent are modified to ensure
that the file sync operation completes before stopping the logical domain.



INSTALLING THE PATCH
--------------------
Run the Installer script to automatically install the patch:
-----------------------------------------------------------
To install the patch perform the following steps on at least one node in the cluster:
1. Copy the hot-fix vcsag-sol11_sparc-Patch-6.1.1.100.tar.gz to /tmp
2. Untar vcsag-sol11_sparc-Patch-6.1.1.100.tar.gz to /tmp/hf
    # mkdir /tmp/hf
    # cd /tmp/hf
    # gunzip /tmp/vcsag-sol11_sparc-Patch-6.1.1.100.tar.gz
    # tar xf /tmp/vcsag-sol11_sparc-Patch-6.1.1.100.tar
3. Install the hotfix
    # pwd /tmp/hf
    # ./installVRTSvcsag611P100 [<host1> <host2>...]

Install the patch manually:
--------------------------
Prerequisites:
 *  The system must have VRTSvcsag 6.1.1.0 installed before installation of this patch.
 *  Ensure that all non global zones are in running state.
 To install the patch perform the following steps on all nodes in the VCS cluster:

 1. Save the VCS configuration:
        # haconf -dump

 2. Stop VCS:
        # hastop -local -force

 3. Apply the patch by issuing the following commands:

   a. Set the publisher
        # pkg set-publisher -g <patch_file_pathname>   Symantec
      e.g:
        # pkg set-publisher -g /hotfix_dir/patches/VRTSvcsag.p5p Symantec

   b. Install the package
        # pkg install --accept --no-backup-be VRTSvcsag

 4. Verify that the new package is installed. The output of the following command should display the version for VRTSvcsag package as 6.1.1.100:
        # pkg info VRTSvcsag

 5. Unset the publisher:
        # pkg unset-publisher Symantec

 6. Start VCS:
        # hastart

Note: If a non global zone is in 'configured' state while the VRTSvcsag package is being updated, then the package is not updated in local zone. To update packages inside a non global zone, set the publisher and then use the command (repeat per zone as needed):
        # zoneadm -z <zonename>   attach -u


REMOVING THE PATCH
------------------
Note:  Uninstalling this patch will remove the entire VRTSvcsag package.
        If you need an earlier version of the package, re-install it from
        original source media (ref. step 4 below).


Run the following steps on all the nodes in the VCS cluster:

 1. Save the VCS configuration:
        # haconf -dump

 2. Stop VCS:
        # hastop -local -force

 3. Uninstall the VRTSvcsag package:

   a. If you have non global zones on the system, uninstall the VRTSvcsag package from all non global zones in which it is present (repeat with <zonename>     set to each non global zone in which VRTSvcsag is installed):
        # zlogin <zonename>  "pkg uninstall VRTSvcsag"

   b. Once the package is uninstalled from all non global zones, uninstall the package from the global zone:
        # pkg uninstall VRTSvcsag

 4. (optional) Install the previous version of the VRTSvcsag package from original source media to revert your system to pre-patch conditions.

 5. Restart VCS:
        # hastart
