ECO KIT SUMMARY:
A dupatch-based, Early Release Patch kit exists for HP Tru64 UNIX
V5.1B-2/PK4 that contains solutions to the following problem(s):
This Engineering Advisory provides Early Release Patch (ERP) kits which
contain corrections to multiple problems that have been experienced with
the Collect utility. These problems include:
0 - incorrect CPU/RAD and memory statistics on NUMA systems;
o - a memory leak when run on NUMA systems;
o - a deficiency with the memory subsystem output report format on NUMA
systems which caused cfilt/collgui to filter its input incorrectly;
o - a condition with the "-W" flushing option which can cause Collect to
produce invalid data files or die prematurely when running in historical
mode;
o - a situation related to Collect's LSM subsystem which can cause the
utility to die when running in historical mode.
In addition to fixes for the above problems, these ERP kits provide the
ability for Collect to dynamically handle changes to resources such as
AdvFS filesystems and disks, improved input validation, and improved syslog
error logging.
The Patch Kit Installation Instructions and the Patch Summary and Release
Notes documents provide patch kit installation and removal instructions
and a summary of each patch. Please read these documents prior to
installing patches on your system.
The patches in this ERP kit will also be available in the next mainstream
patch kit - HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1B-4.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
1) Install this kit with the dupatch utility that is included in the patch
kit. You may need to baseline your system if you have manually changed
system files on your system. The dupatch utility provides the baselining
capability.
2) The patch in this ERP kit does not have any file intersections with any
other ERP available at this time for this product version.
3) This ERP kit will NOT install over any Customer Specific Patches (CSPs)
which have file intersections with this ERP kit. Contact your normal
Service Provider for assistance if the installation of this ERP kit is
blocked by any of your installed CSPs.
INSTALLATION PREREQUISITES:
You must have installed HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1B-2/PK4 prior to installing this
Early Release Patch Kit.
SUPERSEDE INFORMATION:
None
KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH THE PATCH KIT:
None.
