SUMMARY OF INCIDENTS FIXED BY THE PATCH
---------------------------------------
Patch ID: VRTScps-6.1.0.100
* 3466259 (3460406) The /opt/VRTScps/bin/vxcpserv process generates a core dump.


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

Patch ID: VRTScps-6.1.0.100

* 3466259 (Tracking ID: 3460406)

SYMPTOM:
The /opt/VRTScps/bin/vxcpserv process generates a core dump in 
the /var/VRTScps/diag/ directory.

DESCRIPTION:
The /opt/VRTScps/bin/vxcpserv process sometimes generates a core 
dump in the /var/VRTScps/diag/ directory during a normal operation on the CP 
server. This happens because a library built into the vxcpserv process does not 
support multithreading. The process generates a core dump when an API from this 
library is called.

RESOLUTION:
Symantec has built the /opt/VRTScps/bin/vxcpserv process with the 
correct library that supports multithreading.
