HP Tru64 UNIX and TruCluster Server Version 5.1B-5 Patch Summary and Release Notes (March 2009)

Please install the latest TruCluster Server patches on your system.

You can obtain the most recent patch kit from:

http://www.support.compaq.com/patches/

*** Error ***

The system is not configured properly for cluster creation.

Please fix the previously reported problems, and then rerun the

'clu_create' command.

If you see these messages, enter the following command:

# ls -tlr /usr/.smdb./*PAT*.sts

If this command returns a file with 000000 in its name, you will have to run the

clu_create command with the -f option to force the creation of your cluster. The

problem is caused by the cluster software misinterpreting the existence of some patches

and will be corrected in a future patch kit.

If the command does not return a file with 000000 in its name, you will need to contact

HP support to determine the cause of the problem.

4.2.12 When Taking a Cluster Member to Single-User Mode, First Halt the Member

To take a cluster member from multiuser mode to single-user mode, first halt the

member and then boot it to single-user mode. For example:

# shutdown -h now

>>> boot -fl s

Halting and booting the system ensures that it provides the minimal set of services to

the cluster and that the running cluster has a minimal reliance on the member running

in single-user mode.

When the system reaches single-user mode, enter the following commands:

# /sbin/init s

# /sbin/bcheckrc

# /usr/sbin/lmf reset

4.2.13 Login Failure Possible with C2 Security Enabled

Security (C2) enabled. The failures may be exhibited in two ways:

• With the following error message:

Can't rewrite protected password entry for user

• With the following set of error messages:

Can't rewrite protected password entry for user

The problem may occur after the initial reboot of the lead cluster member or after the

rolling upgrade is completed and the clu_upgrade switch procedure has been run.
