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

Patch ID: 7.0.1.400

* 3865899 (Tracking ID: 3866180)

SYMPTOM:
After fencing is configured, VxFEN fails to start.

DESCRIPTION:
VxFEN fails to start if the installer uses the openssl command installed with 
OS, because the version of the openssl command is not latest enough to support 
the -sha256 option. As a result, the openssl command fails to generate the csr 
file. The fencing fails to start because of the csr file missing.

RESOLUTION:
The installer is modified to use the openssl command shipped with the VRTSperl 
package.

* 3866781 (Tracking ID: 3867243)

SYMPTOM:
After configuring CP based fencing, VxFEN fails to start.

DESCRIPTION:
On CP client side, the installer uses the openssl command shipped with VRTSperl. On CP server 
side, the installer still uses the openssl command installed with OS if the OS platforms of 
the CP client side and the CP server side are different. 
The version of the openssl command installed with OS may not be latest enough to support the 
-sha256 option, which is used on the server side when the installer sets up HTTPS trust 
between CP server and CP client. In this case, the openssl command fails to generate the csr 
file, causing the VxFEN to fail to start.

RESOLUTION:
The code is modified to use the openssl command shipped with the VRTSperl package on both the 
CP client side and the CP server side.

* 3878735 (Tracking ID: 3879593)

SYMPTOM:
Product installation failed on the new OS update version.

DESCRIPTION:
Installer could not check the correct version of the dependency OS rpms of product 
on the new OS update. It cause product installation failed on the new OS update or 
the prompt dependency OS rpms version incorrectly.

RESOLUTION:
Set default dependency OS rpms to each platform (RHEL6, RHEL7, SLES11, SLES12) for
each 
release. Remove the specific version for each rpm, just keep the rpm name and 
architecture type, like: glibc.x86_64.

* 3880941 (Tracking ID: 3875921)

SYMPTOM:
VRTSaslapm is not installed when you install InfoScale Enterprise on a new OS update version.

DESCRIPTION:
The installer defines VRTSaslapm as a patch, although VRTSaslapm is a package. 
When you install InfoScale Enterprise, the installer downloads the must-have 
patch for the new OS update automatically. But since the patch installer 
defines VRTSaslapm as a patch, it does not install VRTSaslapm.

RESOLUTION:
Set VRTSaslapm as a package and add it to the list of packages that need to be 
installed.
