Date: 2014-09-03 OS: Solaris, Linux, HPUX, AIX Products: All Products The patch apply for 5.1SP1 releases, like 5.1SP1, 5.1SP1RP1, 5.1SP1RP2, LxRT 5.1SP1PR1, LxRT 5.1SP1PR2, etc. The patch fixes the following installer issue: Etrack Incidents: 2977840 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: HP-UX Issue: During precheck installer runs "mount -a" command to check for any invalid entries in /etc/fstab. If there are some invalid entries in /etc/fstab, swinstall will fail to install the packages/patches, hence, to avoid installation failures, this precheck was added (Etrack: 2113801). But if customer has vxfs mount point entires in /etc/fstab, which cannot be mounted during upgrade procedure, and are detected by installer precheck, causing installer to exit. Etrack Incidents: 2910881 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: SunOS, Linux, AIX and HP-UX Issue: If CommandCentral Storage product and Storage Foundation are both installed on the systems, wehn uninstall the Storage Foundation product, VRTSperl is removed even though it is shared by CommandCentral Storage product. Etrack Incidents: 2832838 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: Linux, AIX and HP-UX Issue: Installer starts processes automatically after upgrading to 5.1SP1. But if you have configurations involving terabyte or greater lun sizes, starting Volume Manager 5.1SP1 processes may potentially cause diskgroup import failures and lead to potential data loss. To prevent this issue, installer will not start processes if this kind of configuration is detected. Etrack Incidents: 2788981 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: SunOS, Linux, AIX and HP-UX Issue: If the name of the new node is a substring of the node name in /etc/llthosts file of the cluster, -addnode option fails to add the name of the new node to /etc/llthosts file. Etrack Incidents: 2203370 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: SunOS, Linux and AIX Issue: If you have PreOnline triggers configured globally, installer quits with the following error message during upgrade to 5.1SP1. CPI ERROR V-9-0-0 Failed to upgrade because the system configuration files are not available. Etrack Incidents: 2240260 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: AIX Issue: SFHA 5.1SP1 installer on AIX exits with an error message reporting that the free swap space on local system is not enough. CPI ERROR V-9-30-2067 The free swap space on local system 'dr134' is 128 MB. It is recommended to setup minimal 256 MB of free swap space to successfully run the installer program. Etrack Incidents: 2206483 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: SunOS, Linux and AIX Issue: SFHA 5.1SP1 installer automatically configures password-less SSH/RSH communication. However, this set-up is not cleaned during the end of installatio by the installation program. Etrack Incidents: 2275547 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: Linux Issue: VLANs do not get recognized properly during installation on Linux. Etrack Incidents: 2441975 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: SunOS, Linux, AIX and HP-UX Issue: Installer hangs when it tries to configure password-less SSH/RSH communication if the input password is "password" (in either lower or upper case) and it is not the correct password. Etrack Incidents: 2441981 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: HP-UX Issue: Installer exits with "cannot ping " errors during system verification if local system's network address family (IPv4/IPv6) cannot be detect correctly on HP-UX. Etrack Incidents: 2489862 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: SunOS, Linux, AIX and HP-UX Issue: Installer fails to check existing VCS configuration if the cluster ID was set by "set-cluster" at the first line of /etc/llttab. Etrack Incidents: 2626458 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: SunOS, Linux, AIX and HP-UX Issue: Installer uninstalls required packages, VRTSpbx and VRTSicsco, if user installs Storage Foundation 5.1SP1 product on top of Veritas CommandCentral Managed Host product. These are required packages for CommandCentral product functionality and should not be uninstalled. Etrack Incidents: 2882150 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: SunOS Issue: If upgrading with encapsulated bootdisk with minor number greater than 33000, the upgraded nodes may go to maintenance mode and fail to mount the partitions. Etrack Incidents: 3146092 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: SunOS, Linux, AIX and HP-UX Issue: Even though -nostart option is used, after upgrade, VM processes still get started. Etrack Incidents: 3599828 Release: 5.1SP1 Platform: SunOS, Linux Issue: 1. While validating upgrade procedure with an encapsulated boot disk and with VVR RVG configured in the bootdg. CPI will fail detecting the minor number and consequently fail the upgrade. CPI ERROR V-9-0-0 Failed to get the bootdg device minor number 2. When you validate the upgrade procedure with an encapsulated boot disk and the disk group minoring is already set to 1000, the CPI fails the installation. 1. While validating upgrade procedure with an encapsulated boot disk and with Veritas Volume Replicator (VVR) RVG configured in the bootdg, CPI fails to detect the minor number. Consequently the upgrade fails. The following error message is displayed: CPI ERROR V-9-0-0 Failed to get the bootdg device minor number 2. When you validate the upgrade procedure with an encapsulated boot disk, if the disk group minoring is already set to 1000, CPI fails to execute the upgrade because the vxdg(1M) command returns a non-zero exit code. Solution: 1. Copy the hot-fix CPI_5.1SP1_P14.pl to /tmp 2. Run installation scripts with the hot-fix Example: ./installer -require /tmp/CPI_5.1SP1_P14.pl If you do not want to start processes after upgrading to 5.1SP1, run installer script with the "-nostart" option: Example: /installer -require /tmp/CPI_5.1SP1_P14.pl -nostart
