FIXED INCIDENT:
--------------
Following is a brief description of the incident fixed in this patch.
Clients of the GAB service may not get cluster membership.[e1509742]
Symantec recommends that GAB must be configured to provide membership only
after a minimum quorum number of nodes join the cluster.
If a client of GAB comes up before GAB Port a formed membership on that
node, then this client may not get cluster membership until it starts up
on at least the (configured) quorum number of nodes, not even if Port a
or any other GAB Ports receive cluster membership.

INSTALLING THE PATCH:
---------------------
This patch must be installed after installing
Veritas Cluster Server 5.0MP3RP2.
Perform the following steps on every system in the cluster.
1. Log on as superuser on the system on which the point patch is to be
installed.
2. Presistently freeze that node in VCS:
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/haconf -makerw
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hasys -freeze <nodename> -persistent
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/haconf -dump -makero
3. Stop all clients of GAB. For example:
a) For VCS, run the following command:
# /etc/init.d/vcs stop
b) For VxFEN:
# /etc/init.d/vxfen stop
Take care to also shutdown any components dependant on these clients.
Take care to observe correct order.
4. Stop GAB:
# /etc/init.d/gab stop
5. Upgrade VRTSgab package as per the Linux distribution running
on the system:
For RHEL4 or OEL4.4, use the following command:
# rpm -Uvh VRTSgab-5.0.30.21-MP3RP2HF1_RHEL4.x86_64.rpm
For RHEL5 or OEL5.1, use the following command:
# rpm -Uvh VRTSgab-5.0.30.21-MP3RP2HF1_RHEL5.x86_64.rpm
For SLES9, use the following command:
# rpm -Uvh VRTSgab-5.0.30.21-MP3RP2HF1_SLES9.x86_64.rpm
For SLES10, use the following command:
# rpm -Uvh VRTSgab-5.0.30.21-MP3RP2HF1_SLES10.x86_64.rpm
6. Start GAB by using the following command:
# /etc/init.d/gab start
7. Start all the stopped GAB clients. For example:
a) For VxFEN, run the following command:
# /etc/init.d/vxfen start
b) For VCS, run the following command:
# /etc/init.d/vcs start
Take care to also bring up any components that are dependent on the clients
that were stopped in step 3. Take care to observe correct order.
8. Persistently unfreeze the system in VCS:
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/haconf -makerw
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/hasys -unfreeze <nodename> -persistent
# /opt/VRTSvcs/bin/haconf -dump -makero
