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

Patch ID: 5.1.134.200

* 3363809 (Tracking ID: 3371456)

SYMPTOM:
The Symantec Product Installer attempts to start vxconfigd before upgrade, which may lead data corruption.

DESCRIPTION:
LUNs over 1TB in size in Volume Manager(VxVM) may encounter data corruption when upgrading to 5.1SP1 or 5.1SP1RPx.
TechNote: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH188018

During patch upgrade from 5.1SP1 to 5.1SP1RP4 release, the Symantec Product Installer 
attempts to start vxconfigd before patch upgrade, which leads data corruption.

RESOLUTION:
CPI provides a hot fix for customer to avoid vxconfigd get started if option '-nostart' is specified.

* 3512862 (Tracking ID: 3365076)

SYMPTOM:
The Symantec product installer failed and reported a GAB error while 
adding nodes to the cluster.

DESCRIPTION:
For the newly added node, the node ID in the /etc/llthosts file is 
based on the node number, which belongs to the node before it is added. If there 
is a gap in the /etc/llthosts file before the node is added, then a duplicate 
node ID is assigned to the new node. Due to this assignment, GAB fails and adds 
incorrect information for the new node in the main.cf file.

RESOLUTION:
Assign node IDs that's not been used in /etc/llthosts to newly added 
nodes to avoid duplicate node IDs.
