Serviceguard Extension for RAC Version A.11.18 Release Notes, 4th Edition, September 2008

Defect Number Problem and Resolution
SR: 8606462012 (JAGag17936) Problem: error register to group -- port does not belong to
pid. cmgmsd failed to call pstat_getsocket to retrieve
socket information due to less memory.
Resolution: Fix is available in patch PHSS_34824.
Defect Number Problem and Resolution
SR: 8606472718 (JAGag27561)
Problem: remove the well known ports. cmgmsd uses
internet socket and port number 5308 & 5408 for the
communication between cmgmsd and cmgmsd client. Do
not use ports 5308 and 5408 since they are already
registered by other companies.
Resolution: Fix is available in patch PHSS_34824.
Defect Number Problem and Resolution
SR:8606439160 (JAGaf97163)
Problem: crsctl stop crs caused many SIGKILL
messages in cmgmsd.log
Resolution: After sending the kill signal to the client,
cmgmsd waits for a short period of time before sending
another kill signal. This allows the client more time to
process the signal and exit before another kill signal is sent.
For SGeRAC Version A.11.17 requires patch PHSS_33838.
Defect Number Problem and Resolution
SR:8606435963 (JAGaf94337)
Problem: cmgmsd killed itself and brought node down.
Resolution: Changed the source code not to process the
group member if the de-registration of this group member
is successful.
For SGeRAC Version A.11.17 requires patch PHSS_33838.
Defect Number Problem and Resolution
SR:8606427015 (JAGaf86496)
Problem: skgxnqgrp does not return correctly.
Resolution: Changed the source code to return an empty
bitmap if the specified group is not found.
For SGeRAC Version A.11.17 requires patch PHSS_33838.
Defect Number Problem and Resolution
SR:8606453198 (JAGag09971)
Problem: errors when /etc/cmcluster’s file system
becomes full (SGeRAC installations only). When the file
system where /etc/cmcluster resides became full when
Serviceguard Extension for RAC was running, and Oracle
software was trying to request a group membership
change, messages such as the following appeared in
syslog:
cmgmsd[1997]: Unable to apply the configuration change due to
insufficient disk space. cmgmsd[1997]:
ERROR: commit_cdb_txn: Failed to commit transaction (28, No space
left on device) This could ultimately lead to various Oracle
failures.
Resolution: cmgmsd transactions no longer fail if there is
not enough disk space to write them to the binary
configuration file. An error is written to syslogbut the
transaction completes, preventing Oracle errors. The
transaction is written to disk on nodes which have enough
space.
