1451716	: hasys -display xxxx causes SIGSEGV for remote system

INSTALLING THE PATCH
--------------------

1.  Verify that /opt/VRTS/bin is in your PATH so you can execute all the 
    product commands. Refer to the Veritas Cluster Server Installation Guide
    for more information.

2.  Verify that the version of VRTSvcs is 4.1 MP2.

3. Freeze all the service groups persistently. 

    # haconf -makerw; 
    # hagrp -freeze <group> -persistent
    # haconf -dump -makero

4. Take a backup of the types.cf file, if you have done any type level
   modifications for bundlled agents. 
   You must restore the types.cf after the installation is over. 
   Refer to step 8.

5. Stop the cluster on all nodes. If the cluster is writable, you may
   close the configuration before stopping the cluster.
    # haconf -dump -makero
   From one node, execute the following command.

    # hastop -all

   Verify that the cluster is stopped on all nodes 
   by running the ha command.

    # hasys -state

   On all nodes, make sure that both had and hashadow processes are stopped.
   Also, stop the VCS CmdServer on all nodes. 
   Determine the PID of the CmdServer and enter:

    # CmdServer -stop

6. Install the patch on each node in the cluster using the swinstall command:

    # cd <patch_location>
    # swinstall -s `pwd`  PVCO_03870

7. After installation is complete, verify that the patch has been installed. 
    # swlist | grep PVCO_03870

8. If you have backed up types.cf in step 4, then copy the same to 
   /etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/types.cf.
   Else, copy /etc/VRTSvcs/conf/types.cf to /etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/types.cf 

9. At this time, you can start cluster services on all cluster nodes.
   On one node, please verify that VCS configuration is valid.

    # hacf -verify config

   If the configuration is valid, start VCS:

    # hastart

   On all other nodes, start VCS by issuing hastart once the
   first node goes to LOCAL_BUILD or RUNNING state.

10. Unfreeze all the groups.

     # haconf -makerw
     # hagrp -unfreeze <group> -persistent
     # haconf -dump -makero


REMOVING THE PATCH
------------------

1. Make sure that VCS is not running in the cluster.
    # /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hastop -all

		or

    # /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hastop -all -force

2. Remove the patch on each node using the swremove command:

    # swremove PVCO_03870
3. Verify that the patch is removed from each system. 
   Type:   
    # swlist | grep PVCO_03870
   If the patch gets removed successfully, the command will not display any
   output.
