Description::There was a race condition between a system call and the AMF driver unconfiguration which caused this issue. Resolution::Symantec modified the code to address this race condition. * Incident no::2403851 Tracking ID ::2403846 Symptom::System cannot unload the AMF driver. Description::An error in the code prevented the AMF module from being unloaded though the module was not being used. Resolution::Symantec has modified the code. AMF module can be unloaded when it is not in use. * Incident no::2406748 Tracking ID ::2406746 Symptom::Offline registration for a process with AMF succeeds even when the process is running. Description::When AMF processes the offline registration request, stale data from earlier cycles causes an online process to be reported as offline. Resolution::Symantec had modified the code to remove the stale data. The correct status is passed on to registration requests. * Incident no::2407653 Tracking ID ::2407652 Symptom::The module reference count on the filesystem registered with AMF for mount offline monitoring or mount online monitoring is not released when you forcefully unconfigure AMF using the "amfconfig -Uof" command. Description::When forcefully unconfiguring AMF, it was not releasing its reference from the filesystem modules. This caused extra reference counts on these modules to remain even after AMF driver was unloaded. Resolution::Symantec modified the code for proper reference counting on these filesystem modules during forceful unconfiguration of AMF. * Incident no::2517333 Tracking ID ::2517332 Symptom::On HP-UX systems, kernel panics when it unmounts a file system. Description::The AMF driver was trying to release the memory that it had not allocated. This caused the node to panic. Resolution::Symantec modified the code to resolve this issue.
