Issue 4:
OS: Solaris, AIX, Linux
Products: All products
Etrack Incidents: 2832838

Problem statement:
Installer starts processes automatically after upgrading to 5.1SP1RP2. But if you have configurations involving terabyte or greater lun sizes, starting Volume Manager 5.1SP1RP2 processes may potentially cause diskgroup import failures and lead to potential data loss. Installer provides a new option "-nostart" in this hot-fix. If "-nostart" option is used, installer will not start any processes after upgrading to 5.1SP1RP2.


Issue 5:
OS: HPUX
Products: All products
Etrack Incidents: 3133259

Problem statement:
During reboot requirement checking for VRTS packages and patches, CPI uses 'swlist -s $ppdir -a blah' to determine. But this may end up like 'swlist -s -a blah' when $ppdir is null. 

Workaround steps:
Symantec has provided a patch to resolve the above mentioned issue.


Usage:
1. Copy the hot-fix CPI_5.1SP1RP2_P5.pl to /tmp
2. Run RP script or RP rollback script with the hot-fix
   Example:
   ./installrp -require /tmp/CPI_5.1SP1RP2_P5.pl
   ./uninstallrp -require /tmp/CPI_5.1SP1RP2_P5.pl

If you do not want installrp to start processes after installing 5.1SP1RP2, run installrp script with the "-nostart" option:
   Example:
   ./installrp -require /tmp/CPI_5.1SP1RP2_P5.pl -nostart
