Patch ID: 5.1.133.100
* 3009882 (Tracking ID: 3002932)
SYMPTOM:
vxfen module fails to stop when you manually restart a node by issuing
the shutdown -r now command
DESCRIPTION:
You cannot stop the vxfen module by restarting the node if any of
its client processes, such as Veritas Cluster Server and so on, are running.
Typically, a node reboot stops all the client processes of vxfen and
subsequently stops the vxfen module. For some reason if the node restart does
not stop the client processes, then the attempt to stop vxfen module also fails
because client processes are still running.
RESOLUTION:
Symantec has implemented a retry logic such that after a node
restart happens the vxfen module periodically tries to stop itself for a
specific number of times. The retry logic gives client processes enough time
to stop.
