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

• Changes the way that memory is marked as bad on the AlphaServer GS1280 in
order to prevent a recursive crash on reboots. (A crash is expected as a result of a
double-bit-memory error machine check.)
• Fixes the errant binary.errlog entry "Status = CMP but resid not NULL Possible
Software Problem - Impossible Cond Detected" from the peripheral disk, tape, and
changer drivers.
• Updates the ee driver to V1.0.27 to fix issues with IPv6 and SNMP
• Corrects a potential race condition in the cam_tape driver.
• Fixes a problem that causes a system to hang when swapping.
• Corrects the cause of a simple lock timeout panic during I/O barriers.
• Adds path failure detection to the Emulex Fibre Channel driver for situations
involving hung N_Ports of a storage controller in a switched fabric environment.
• Corrects the cause of a system crash that occurs when deleting disks using hwmgr.
• Fixes the cause of certain panics by increasing the timeout for CPU onlines.
• Provides better error handling for the MSA1000.
• Fixes a problem in which a node does not properly find the server for a disk but
incorrectly fails an open with ENODEV.
• Installs Version 1.13 of the ciss driver.
• Provides changes that allow for the proper usage of Smart Array controllers that
are behind PCI bridges.
• Provides support for new PCI svid for the ATM controllers 155 mmf, 155 utp, and
622 mmf.
• Fixes the 'hwmgr edit scsi command.
• Fixes the cause of a "Simple lock owned" panic seen on a KZPEA during a cluster
boot.
• Updates the bcm driver to V1.0.23 to fix issues with Jumbo frames.
• Corrects a condition in which the firmware FRU table and Configuration Tree are
not logged to binary errorlog during boot on AlphaServer ES47/ES80/GS1280
systems with less than 4 GB of memory.
• Fixes the cause of a system crash that occurs when running with lockmode=4.
• Corrects a problem in which the hwmgr command's display of DS15 environmental
sensors may indicate that they are in the warning state when they are actually in
the fault state.
• Corrects a condition that prevents setting a high temperature threshold (warn and
fault) for hwmgr and envmond on DS15.
• Fixes a potential disk-identification delay when doing disk cloning.
• Corrects a problem in which the hwmgr -delete command can cause a panic when
directed at a sensor.
• Adds a ddr flag to prevent failing I/O when ASCQ_LUN_NRDY_MAN are received
from HSZ devices.
