HP Serviceguard Version A.11.17 Release Notes, March 2006 (revised)

Serviceguard Version A.11.17 Release Notes
Fixed in This Version
Chapter 1 35
JAGaf66489 (SR8606406583): cmsnmpd sends out trap
too early before localswitch and it can get lost
What was the problem? The cmsnmpd subagent trap,
hpmcSGLocalSwitch may be lost if the trap destination IP address
happens to be on the network interface that is in the process of doing a
local LAN failover. The trap may be sent before the local LAN failover
has completed, so it may be lost.
What was the resolution? Update status database of a subnet switch only
when its stationary address has been moved to the standby lan card.
Update status database of a lan card failover only when all of its
stationary addresses have been failed over to the standby lan card.
JAGaf64180 (SR8606404256): cmcld segv core in
cl_comm_link_send
What was the problem?
cmcld
may core dump upon encountering a
corrupted DLPI packet. This can also happen when the cluster
configuration parameter,
NETWORK_FAILURE_DETECTION
is set to
INONLY_OR_INOUT
and a node has been deleted from the cluster
configuration while the cluster is online (and the cluster has not been
halted and restarted in the online configuration change). Serviceguard
may try to poll with the network interface on the deleted node, causing
this problem. In either case the following messages will be seen in
syslog.log
:
cmcld: Failed to lookup dlpi peer node 2
cmcld: This might be due to a corrupted dlpi packet
What was the resolution? Do not dereference the NULL pointer and do
not poll with a node that gets deleted from the cluster.
JAGaf64109 (SR8606404185): cmscancl does not get SG
version number when OE bundles are loaded
What was the problem? The cmscancl command used swlist to
determine the version of Serviceguard and Cluster Object Manager
loaded on the server. This command cannot account for the Serviceguard
product contained in the OE bundles, hence, it cannot properly report the
version of Serviceguard loaded.
What was the resolution? Use what command on cmcld, cmomd and grep
for Date and Ver respectively instead of swlist.
