Virtual TapeServer 6.04.04 for NonStop Servers Release Notes

Resolved Issues and Enhancements | 16
 RSH service is disabled. The RSH service has been disabled on the VTS server. To
improve system security and to pass certain security vulnerability tests, RSH should be
disabled unless this is necessary to support the RSH method for Instant DR. Note that
SSH can also be used, which offers improved security. To enable RSH, log in to the server
as root, edit /etc/xinetd.d/rsh to change the line that reads “disable = yes” to “disable = no”.
Then, run the service xinetd reload command. (TL-3927)
 Must reboot after disabling auditd logging. After you disable auditd logging, the
auditd service stopped but due to a kernel defect, the output was directed to the console
and /var/log/messages. This is no longer an issue. (TL-2465, EAR 4787)
 Debug log consumed too much space. The debug log was flooded with messages
similar to the following:
[vtmeta] MODULE ENTRY: UNKNOWN (0000/00/00, 0.000)
While this message was not an error, it caused the file to grow and consumed filesystem
space. This has been fixed. (TL-4241, EAR 6277)
 getVTS_dbginfo now includes network and operating system information.
Network configuration information, including ifconfig and ethtool output, and operating
system information, including sysctl -a output and the /etc/sysctl.conf file for evaluating
performance, have been added to getVTS_dbginfo output. (TL-4048, TL-4208)
 PostgreSQL log files were filling up the file system. The postgresqlDAY.log files in /
var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_logs were filling up the filesystem with as much as 1GB per day
logging bill connections and disconnections from database. This has been fixed. (TL-4051,
EAR 6075)
 RPM now installed to enable fence_ilo to run. The perl-Net-SSLeay-1.30-
1.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm file has now been installed, enabling the user to run fence_ilo. (TL-
4045)
 XMLRPC and Ruby logs were not rotated. The XMLRPC and Ruby production log
files were not rotated according to the logrotate settings. This has been fixed. (TL-3997)
Installation, upgrades, updates, downgrade, and restore
 /mnt/installCDs directory is now removed after the software is installed. This
directory is not needed after the software is installed. Removing the directory reclaims the
disk space. (TL-4879)
 Should not reinstall without system restore image. You should not reinstall the
server if a system restore image was not created after the server was originally installed
or after an upgrade. Contact your Support representative for assistance. (TL-4565)
 Upgrade and downgrade checks for required disk space before proceeding. If
insufficient space is detected, the upgrade and downgrade will fail to proceed. (TL-5045,
TL-4966)
 Could not uninstall IR if Disable all SCSI virtual devices option was selected. If
the “Disable all SCSI virtual devices” was selected on the Manage System Limits page, an
IR could not be uninstalled if the previous version was 6.04.03. (Uninstalling from
6.04.03.02 to 6.04.03.01 succeeded.) The option renamed the CRDS Adaptec drivers and
the IR uninstall replaced them when doing the uninstall. This option has been removed
from the web interface and this issue no longer occurs. (TL-4330)
 After a system restore, duplicate VTDs were created on Manage Connections
page. This has been fixed. (TL-3567)
