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

Patch ID: 6.0.1.800

* 2984386 (Tracking ID: 3248893)

SYMPTOM:
Installer fails to detect the OS update level if the Solaris 10 kernel patch is 
upgraded to Update 10, and issues the below warning message:
WARNING V-9-40-3995 Solaris 10 Update 6 is installed on <system>. It is 
strongly 
recommended to install Solaris 10 Update 8 or later

DESCRIPTION:
Solaris 10 u10 haven't got published when 6.0.1 released. CPI need to support 
the 
lastest kernel version during precheck procedure.

RESOLUTION:
CPI add support to the release Solaris 10 u10.

* 3125432 (Tracking ID: 3125494)

SYMPTOM:
CPI fails with QEMU undefined when user have bios vendor QEMU.

DESCRIPTION:
If customer have bios vendor QEMU, CPI will report the following error message:

CPI ERROR V-9-0-0 

1 thread 1 threw error: Can't locate object method "QEMU" via package
"Padv::RHEL5x8664"

RESOLUTION:
CPI replace $padv->QEMU by $padv->VIRT_QEMU in padv.pm.

* 3227558 (Tracking ID: 3243089)

SYMPTOM:
During a live upgrade on SunOS, the rsh or the ssh command use
approximately 3 minutes per node to verify if a node is alive. The verification
process causes a delay in the installation process.

DESCRIPTION:
During an installation process, when the rsh or the ssh command is
invoked, the command verifies the state of each node to understand if it is
alive. In the process of verification, the commands consume more time than
expected, which causes a delay in the installation process. The installer also
reports error messages during the rsh communication precheck. Some of these
error messages are invalid that leads to repeated verification of the ssh or the
rsh connection.

RESOLUTION:
Remove the invalid error messages while CPI verifies the rsh or the
ssh commands. CPI executes the rsh or the ssh communication only once regardless
of the failure that is observed in the rsh or the ssh verification process.

* 3228679 (Tracking ID: 3230218)

SYMPTOM:
With Solaris version 11, the Common Product Installer (CPI) based
installation process fails during a precheck because the nslookup command is
missing. 
After the failure, the installer reports the following error message:
CPI ERROR V-9-30-1446 
The following required OS commands are missing on system:
/usr/sbin/nslookup: No such file or directory.

DESCRIPTION:
The Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) has deprecated the use of
nslookup command instead has certified to use either the host or dig. The CPI
packages contain the nslookup command, which the standard build does not support. 
During an installation, the Storage Foundation (SF) CPI installer installs the
bind packages (pkg:/network/dns/bind) and later removes these bind packages to
comply with the ISC's new security guidelines. However, during a precheck when
the nslookup command is not found, the installer stops the installation with an
error.

RESOLUTION:
To prevent the installation failure, remove the nslookup command
from the preinstallation command checklist.

* 3294945 (Tracking ID: 3295841)

SYMPTOM:
During an installation process with 6.0.1_P4.pl or 6.0.3_P6.pl, when ssh 
banner is enabled, an error will be given:
  Checking system communication CPI ERROR V-9-0-0

1 thread 1 threw error: Can't locate object method "arch_sys" via 
package "Padv::" (perhaps you forgot to load "Padv::"?) 
at /opt/VRTSperl/lib/site_perl/UXRT60/EDR/EDR/systems.pm line 102.

DESCRIPTION:
During an installation process, when the rsh or the ssh command is
invoked, the command verifies the state of each node to understand if it is
available to conection. If ssh/rsh banner is enabled, the existing diagnostic 
method for connection will failed.

RESOLUTION:
Installer will not set $sys->{banner} when testing ssh/rsh connection.

* 3298901 (Tracking ID: 3304955)

SYMPTOM:
Installer block upgrade to 6.0.1 if no VCS configuration exist.

DESCRIPTION:
T-Mobile like many customers has a "Gold Image" install methodology; all Servers 
get 
the same OS and Storage Foundation packages - in this case T-Mobile installs 
SFRAC.

The issue here is on the many servers that are used in standalone mode with only 
Storage Foundation and DMP configured and running.  The installer detects the 
SFRAC 
packages and that VCS is not configured and then stops running. Our customer 
must 
then manually uninstall various packages, which is not acceptable.

RESOLUTION:
Installer will not block upgrade, just give warnings and user can continue 
upgrade 
without VCS configuration.

* 3307508 (Tracking ID: 3309409)

SYMPTOM:
Installation of SFHA 6.0.1 with CPI hotfix in Solaris 10 Update 11, installer 
gives the following warning messages:
"The following warnings were discovered on the systems:
CPI WARNING V-9-40-3995 Solaris 10 Update 6 is installed. It is 
strongly recommended to install Solaris 10 Update 8 or later."

DESCRIPTION:
148888-03 is Solaris 10 Update 11 kernel patch ID which was released January 
2013.While the first CPI HF for 6.0.1 was created last year,  which to support 
Solaris10 U10,  so Solaris 11 Update 11 support was not included.

RESOLUTION:
Add the Solaris 11 Update 11 support to the latest hotfix.

* 3360781 (Tracking ID: 3355748)

SYMPTOM:
Upgrading VCS from 5.0MP3RP5 to 6.0.1 with SG containing multiple zones throws 
CPI errors

CPI ERROR V-9-40-3737 In the file '/etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/main.cf' on 
sprsv480b7-09, the ContainerName and ContainerType value of all resources in 
group
'SAP-HAWKER-ITE1-SG' are not consistent :
    SAP-HAWKER-ITE1-SG   app-zone2-res  ContainerName  tstzone2
    SAP-HAWKER-ITE1-SG   app-zone2-res  ContainerType  Zone
    SAP-HAWKER-ITE1-SG   app-zone1-res  ContainerName  tstzone1
    SAP-HAWKER-ITE1-SG   app-zone1-res  ContainerType  Zone
CPI ERROR V-9-40-3738 In the file '/etc/VRTSvcs/conf/config/main.cf' on 
sprsv480b7-09, the group 'SAP-HAWKER-ITE1-SG' contains more than 1 Zone :
    SAP-HAWKER-ITE1-SG   Zone Name tstzone1
    SAP-HAWKER-ITE1-SG   Zone Name tstzone2

DESCRIPTION:
Since 6.0.1 VCS provide specific customer a hotfix to support multiple zones(via 
a new attribute ResContainerInfo in resource level) in a single service group as 
it's supported prior to 5.1. However CPI wasn't required to support this design 
change. So when the setup in such case upgrade from versions prior to 5.1 to 
6.x, CPI throw error and bail out.

RESOLUTION:
Add the ResContainerInfo support for upgrading from versions prior to 5.1 to 6.x 
to support multiple zones in a single service group.
