SUMMARY OF INCIDENTS FIXED BY THE PATCH
---------------------------------------
Patch ID: 6.2.1.400
* 3789486 (3789485) On Solaris 11, in some scenarios, after upgrading SF Oracle RAC, VCS, SFHA, or 
SFCFSHA to version 6.2.1, the following error may occur:
"llt failed to start on <server_name>".
* 3794821 (3801924) On Solaris 11, on MPXIO-enabled boot-devices such as T3, T4, or T5, when 
you 
upgrade SF, SFHA, SFCFSHA or SF Oracle RAC from 6.2 to 6.2.1, the following 
error message will be displayed: 
"Failed to turn on dmp_native_support tunable on xxx. Refer to Dynamic 
Multi-
Pathing".
* 3833269 (3832218) The Installer enables automatically downloading SFHA patches for new 
platform update.
* 3851011 (3846363) When upgrading SFHA environments to SFHA 6.0.5 or higher, the CVMTypes.cf 
is NOT updated with the VCS ClearClone attribute. Customers are unable to 
specify the ClearClone attribute in main.cf to update the on-disk UDID 
content for DMP detected hardware replicated devices.

mismatch.


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

Patch ID: 6.2.1.400

* 3789486 (Tracking ID: 3789485)

SYMPTOM:
On Solaris 11, in some scenarios, after upgrading SF Oracle RAC, VCS, SFHA, or 
SFCFSHA to version 6.2.1, the following error may occur: "llt failed to start on 
<server_name>".

DESCRIPTION:
Due to the LLT driver unload issue, the LLT module version persists with 6.2.0, 
even after the product is upgraded to version 6.2.1.

RESOLUTION:
The code is modified to unload the module prior to package upgrade for LLT, GAB 
and vxfen on Solaris 11.

* 3794821 (Tracking ID: 3801924)

SYMPTOM:
On Solaris 11, on MPXIO-enabled boot-devices such as T3, T4, T5, when you 
upgrade SF, SFHA, SFCFSHA or SF Oracle RAC from 6.2 to 6.2.1, the following 
error message will be displayed: 
"Failed to turn on dmp_native_support tunable on xxx. Refer to Dynamic 
Multi-
Pathing".

DESCRIPTION:
When DMP and MPxIP coexist, the command 'vxdmpadm settune 
dmp_native_support=off' will fail.

RESOLUTION:
The code is modified to not turn off the tunable dmp_native_support before 
the 
patch upgrade, and not turn on dmp_native_support after the upgrade. During 
the 
upgrade, the product doesnt stop VxVM or VxFS processes. After the 
upgrade, 
you need to reboot to reload the VxVM or the VxFS module.

* 3833269 (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.

* 3851011 (Tracking ID: 3846363)

SYMPTOM:
When upgrading SFHA environments to SFHA 6.0.5 or higher, the CVMTypes.cf 
is NOT updated with the VCS ClearClone attribute. Customers are unable to 
specify the ClearClone attribute in main.cf to update the on-disk UDID 
content for DMP detected hardware replicated devices.

DESCRIPTION:
The ClearClone attribute was introduced from 6.0.5 onwards. The installer 
doesn't update CVMTypes.cf with the VCS ClearClone attribute.

RESOLUTION:
The code is modified to add the VCS ClearClone attribute to CVMTypes.cf.

* 3851013 (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.

* 3851205 (Tracking ID: 3847737)

SYMPTOM:
When install or upgrade products in SFHA environment, the system displays 
an error message after the installer performs pre-check operation. The 
message reports the Linux kernel version is not supported despite of the 
fact that the version is actually supported. The error message is as 
follows:

CPI ERROR V-9-40-1395 Kernel Release 3.0.101-0.47.55-default is detected on 
vmr720-31-v01, which is not supported for this product.

DESCRIPTION:
The issue occurs because the Linux kernel version you use is not 100% match 
the kernel version stored in database.

RESOLUTION:
The code is modified to match only the core part of the kernel version 
string in database.
