Patch ID: 6.1.1.300

* 3439524 (Tracking ID: 3542842)

SYMPTOM:
The Symantec Product Installer attempts to start the vxconfigd daemon before 
upgrade, which leads to data corruption.

DESCRIPTION:
In Volume Manager (VxVM), while upgrading from 5.1SP1 5.1SP1RP1, 5.1SP1RP2, or 
5.1SP1RP3, the LUNs over 1 Terabyte(TB) in size encounter data corruption.
TechNote: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?
page=content&id=TECH188018
 
During upgrade from 5.1SP1, 5.1SP1RP1, 5.1SP1RP2, or 5.1SP1RP3 to 6.0 release, 
the Symantec Product Installer attempts to start vxconfigd daemon before 
upgrade which leads to data corruption.

RESOLUTION:
The code is modified to prevent the vxconfigd daemon from getting started while 
upgrading from 5.1SP1, 5.1SP1RP1, 5.1SP1RP2 or 5.1SP1RP3.

* 3629843 (Tracking ID: 3629873)

SYMPTOM:
The installer requires the package 'postgresql' as a necessary package when 
customers 
try to install SFHA on RHEL6.5.

DESCRIPTION:
VRTSsfadv provides the package 'postgresql'. It's redundant to add this 
package 
into the list of required OS packages.

RESOLUTION:
The installer has been modified to remove the package 'postgresql' from 
list of 
required OS packages.

* 3658198 (Tracking ID: 3658195)

SYMPTOM:
In previous release, if users install SFHA on RHEL 6.6, installer gives an 
error and notifies users that the current kernel release is not supported.

DESCRIPTION:
Since RHEL 6.6 is released, SFHA now supports it with branches including 
6.0.1/6.0.5/6.1/6.1.1. Installer need to change the notification to guide 
customers to find corresponding patches.

RESOLUTION:
Installer notifies customers to download Symantec product patches when they 
install SFHA on RHEL 6.6.

* 3833268 (Tracking ID: 3832218)

SYMPTOM:
In previous releases, if users try to install SFHA on unconfirmed platform, 
the installer displays an error message and advices users to find 
corresponding patches through SORT website:

DESCRIPTION:
In this patch release, the installer uses dynamic data from web service to 
check the patch status for new platform update. If there is a patch for new 
platform update on SORT website, the installer automatically downloads and 
applies it.

RESOLUTION:
If there is a patch for new platform update on SORT website, the installer 
automatically downloads and applies it.

* 3835567 (Tracking ID: 3814804)

SYMPTOM:
Fail to configure the CP server because the network interface name for VIP 
is not recognized, such as bond0.636.

DESCRIPTION:
The Symantec product installer has some limitations for the network 
interface name.

RESOLUTION:
The code is modified to remove the limitations for the network interface 
name.
