* 3093828 (3125918) AMF driver panics the node when vxconfigd is unresponsive.


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

Patch ID: 6.0.300.100

* 3093828 (Tracking ID: 3125918)

SYMPTOM:
AMF driver panics the node when vxconfigd is unresponsive.

DESCRIPTION:
The libusnp_vxnotify.so library, used for disk group notifications, goes into
an infinite loop when vxconfigd daemon is unresponsive.  This causes AMF to
enter an inconsistent state; as a result, the AMF driver panics the node.

RESOLUTION:
Symantec has modified the AMF driver and libusnp_vxnotify.so
library to address this issue.



INSTALLING THE PATCH
--------------------
Prerequisites:
 *  The system must have VRTSvcsag 6.0.300.0 installed before installation of
    this patch.
 *  Install VRTSamf 6.0.300.100 (or later) patch before installing this patch.

The VRTSvcsag-6.0.300.100 patch may be installed either manually (see below)
or using the included installer.

 *  To apply the patch using the installer, enter the commands 
        # cd <hotfix_directory>  && ./installVCSAG603P1  [ <node1> <node2>... ]
    
    where 
      <hotfix_directory>
                is the directory where you unpacked this hotfix
      <node1>, <node2>, ...
                are the nodes to be patched.  If none are specified, you
                will be prompted to enter them interactively.  All nodes
                must belong to a single cluster.
    
    For information about installer options, run  './installVCSAG603P1 -help'.
    

 *  To apply the patch manually, perform the steps listed below on each node.
 
 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 -p <patch_file_pathname>  Symantec 
      e.g:
        # pkg set-publisher -p /hotfix_dir/patches/VRTSvcsag.p5p  Symantec 
    
   b. Install the package
        # pkg install --accept VRTSvcsag 

 4. Verify that the new package is installed.  The output of the following
    command should display the version for VRTSvcsag package as 6.0.300.100: 
        # pkg info VRTSvcsag 

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

 6. Start VCS:
        # hastart


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 local zones on the system, uninstall the VRTSvcsag package
      from all local zones in which it is present (repeat with <zonename>
      set to each local zone in which VRTSvcsag is installed):
        # zlogin <zonename>  pkg uninstall VRTSvcsag 
    
   b. Once the package is uninstalled from all local 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


SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
--------------------
1. This patch is applicable for Solaris 11 U1 and later versions of the OS.

 2. Note: If a local 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 local zone, use the command (repeat per zone as needed):
        # zoneadm -z <zonename>  attach -u
