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

• Corrects an error return code for volinfo. If a specified volume is not in the
configuration database, the error code returned from volinfo will reflect this error.
• Corrects an issue of a cluster node hanging during a boot while another member
recovers the cluster root file systems.
• Allow volsave and volrestore to save nconfig/nlog policies for disk groups and
restore them appropriately.
• Corrects awk errors for invalid quit statements.
• Corrects a problem in which lsmbstartup does not ignore comment lines in
/etc/fstab, thereby making it possible for it to attempt to process that line if it
appears to be an entry for the root file system.
• Corrects an internationalization problem in which an instructional message that
is output by the LSM voldiskadm command's list option is incorrect because it
had not been entered properly in the message catalog.
• Improves null partition checking code.
• Modifies the volassist command to correctly output a warning message for its
shrink operations.
• Enables a full recovery to occur in the event of an invalid magic number found in
the recovery map.
• Corrects a problem in which the volplex command does not send a disk group
option to the usage type utility when both the usage type and disk group options
are specified on the command line.
• Allows a mirrored swap plex to be detached when it contains a phantom subdisk.
• Corrects a problem in which vold may dump core when connectivity to a disk
group is lost, for example its underlying storage is local to one cluster member
and that cluster member leaves the cluster.
• Modifies volsave and volrestore to let them handle public and private offsets of
an LSM disk.
• Causes LSM tol issue an error if a nonroot user tries to run the volencap command.
• Decreases CLSM boot times in large cluster configurations.
• Fixes problems in vol_new_disk ioctl when errors are encountered when loading
a disk in the kernel.
• Fixes a problem with the disk group loglen getting set to 0 when adding a disk to
a non-rootdg disk group.
• Fixes an LSM problem in which device failures may not be handled properly in a
cluster. This is with respect to devices discovered from a previous configuration.
The result could be a diskgroup deport.
• Fixes a vold threads problem in which LSM devices may be incorrectly recorded
as disk clones where LSM starts up,
• Provides a new LSM EVM event, which is posted when LSM is processing
clusterwide plex detaches.
