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

Patch ID: 6.0.500.100

* 3612059 (Tracking ID: 3602386)

SYMPTOM:
vfradmin man page shows the incorrect info about default behavior of -d
option

DESCRIPTION:
When we run vfradmin command without -d option then by default the
debugging is in ENABLED mode but man page indicates that the default debugging
should be in DISABLED mode.

RESOLUTION:
Changes has been done in man page of vfradmin to reflect the correct
default behavior.

Patch ID: 6.0.500.000

* 3411725 (Tracking ID: 3415639)

SYMPTOM:
The type of the fsdedupadm(1M) command always shows as MANUAL even it is launched by the fsdedupschd daemon.

DESCRIPTION:
The deduplication tasks scheduled by the scheduler do not show their type
as "SCHEDULED", instead they show it as "MANUAL". This is because the fsdeduschd daemon, while calling fsdedup, does not set the flag -d which would set the correct status.

RESOLUTION:
The code is modified so that the flag is set properly.

* 3436393 (Tracking ID: 3462694)

SYMPTOM:
The fsdedupadm(1M) command fails with error code 9 when it tries to
mount checkpoints on a cluster.

DESCRIPTION:
While mounting checkpoints, the fsdedupadm(1M) command fails to
parse the cluster mount option correctly, resulting in the mount failure.

RESOLUTION:
The code is modified to parse cluster mount options correctly in the
fsdedupadm(1M) operation.
