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

Patch ID: 6.0.1.200

* 3038705 (Tracking ID: 3042817)

SYMPTOM:
If you try to use the VMware vSphere Client menu to upgrade from Veritas 
Cluster Server (VCS) 6.0.2 to VCS maintenance release (MR) 6.0.3 or later, or 
to Agent Pack 4Q2012 or later, the upgrade fails on virtual machines running 
Linux. The following error message appears:
"Latest version of product is already installed. The installation cannot 
continue."

DESCRIPTION:
This behavior occurs because the pre-installation check fails to determine that 
a  product update is available.

RESOLUTION:
Symantec has issued a p-patch that you can apply to the Symantec High 
Availability Console host, to fix this issue.

* 3119956 (Tracking ID: 3158311)

SYMPTOM:
If you try to install guest components on Linux guests by 
using the vSphere Client GUI, the guest component installation wizard may fail 
without a warning. However, the wizard logs an insufficient disk space error.

DESCRIPTION:
This behavior occurs due to an error in the pre-installation check for 
available disk space. 
When you launch the guest component installation wizard from the vSphere 
Client, the wizard performs certain pre-installation checks on the guest. In 
some cases, even if the disk space is insufficient, the pre-installation check 
is successful.  The wizard proceeds with guest component installation, but 
later fails due to insufficient disk space.

RESOLUTION:
Symantec has issued a patch that you can install on the Console 
host. The patch installs modified versions of certain installation scripts to 
work around the issue.

* 3128413 (Tracking ID: 3164407)

SYMPTOM:
In a VMware virtual environment, while upgrading from VCS 6.0.2 to VCS 6.0.3 or 
a later maintenance release, when you launch the Symantec High Availability 
Guest Components Installer (wizard), the Product Selection panel of the 
installer displays only VCS 6.0.2 installation packages.

DESCRIPTION:
This is a user interface text error. As part of the upgrade prerequisites, you 
must first upgrade the installation packages repository on the Symantec High 
Availability Console host. After you upgrade the repository, the installer must 
display the upgraded installation packages in the Product Selection panel. 
However, the GUI text does not explicitly state that the 6.0.3 packages are 
available for installation.

RESOLUTION:
Symantec has modified the user interface text in the Product Selection panel to 
reflect that updated packages (from VCS 6.0.2 to VCS 6.0.3) are available for 
installation.
