SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS: --------------------- NONE SUMMARY OF FIXED ISSUES: ----------------------------------------- PATCH ID:7.0.1.000 3850606 (3860923) In VRTSspt 7.0.1, VxExplorer report path can be defined in the silent mode 3857119 (3860921) VxExplorer hangs when it uses /opt/VRTSllt/getmac /dev/udp. 3860880 (3860925) VxExplorer uses SFTP to upload customers reports to Veritas servers in VRTSspt 7.0.1 SUMMARY OF KNOWN ISSUES: ----------------------------------------- NONE KNOWN ISSUES : -------------- NONE FIXED INCIDENTS: ---------------- PATCH ID:7.0.1.000 * INCIDENT NO:3850606 TRACKING ID:3860923 SYMPTOM: In Veritas Support Package (VRTSspt) 7.0 or previous versions, VxExplorer report path cannot be defined in the silence mode. The report path can only be defined in the interactive mode. DESCRIPTION: In the silent mode, sometimes /var/tmp is not writable or has a limited size, so customers reports cannot be placed in the folder. There is a need to change the report path to a better place. RESOLUTION: A new parameter in sortdc.conf has been added for customers to specify the VxExplorer report path in VxExplorer collection, as follows: # Set the output directory for VxExplorer collection VXEXPLORER_REPORT_DIR=/var/tmp * INCIDENT NO:3857119 TRACKING ID:3860921 SYMPTOM: VxExplorer hangs when it uses getmac on /dev/udp. DESCRIPTION: /dev/udp is a logical device which is not linked with any specific network adapter. It cannot contain MAC id, so getmac should not be run on /dev/udp. RESOLUTION: Before /opt/VRTSllt/getmac runs on any device, checks will be made to filter out udp devices. * INCIDENT NO:3860880 TRACKING ID:3860925 SYMPTOM: In VRTSspt 7.0 or previous versions, VxExplorer uses FTP to upload customers reports to Vertias servers. The file transfer protocol changes from FTP to SFTP in VRTSspt 7.0.1. DESCRIPTION: To enhance the file security during uploading to Veritas servers, the file transfer protocol changes from FTP to SFTP. RESOLUTION: Use a new account or credential to log in the new file server with SFTP. INCIDENTS FROM OLD PATCHES: --------------------------- NONE
