SUMMARY OF KNOWN ISSUES: ----------------------------------------- NONE KNOWN ISSUES : -------------- NONE FIXED INCIDENTS: ---------------- PATCH ID:PHKL_43532 * INCIDENT NO:3143199 TRACKING ID:3042545 SYMPTOM: Users may be unable to perform rolling upgrades from Veritas Cluster Server (VCS) 5.1SP1RP2 to 6.0 or 6.0.1. DESCRIPTION: This behavior occurs due to a protocol mismatch. The Veritas fencing module (VxFEN) 5.1SP1RP2 uses protocol version 23. However, in releases 6.0 and 6.0.1, the fencing module can only run on protocol versions 10, 20, or 30. As a result, the fencing module fails to start during the above-mentioned rolling upgrade. RESOLUTION: A new patch is released that enables the fencing module in VCS 5.1SP1RP2 clusters to operate using protocol version 30. This ensures that rolling upgrades to release 6.0 or 6.0.1 are successful. INCIDENTS FROM OLD PATCHES: --------------------------- NONE
