PAGE 60
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Introduction Introduction HP’s new nPartition (hard partition) servers provide highly configurable, high-performance HP-UX system environments.
PAGE 61
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Superdome Systems at HP-UX 11i v1 Superdome Systems at HP-UX 11i v1 new at 11i original Superdome models differ with regard to the characteristics shown in Table 4-1.
PAGE 62
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Machine Identifier Machine Identifier updated for June 2001 The uname -i command on your nPartition systems may not return a unique value for each system. To guarantee compatibility on current and future platforms, use the new interfaces to getconf (1) and confstr (3C) to retrieve unique machine identifiers.
PAGE 63
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Hard Partition Hardware Path Format Hard Partition Hardware Path Format new at 11i original The HP-UX command ioscan reports the hardware paths for components within the release partition in which the command is issued. (Note that the ioscan command reports information only for the currently active hardware components in the local partition. It does not report details for hardware not assigned to the local partition.
PAGE 64
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems New and Modified Hard Partition Commands New and Modified Hard Partition Commands new at 11i original Several system administration commands are provided with HP-UX 11i for creating and release maintaining partitions on all nPartition systems. Additionally, the existing commands shutdown, reboot, and setboot have been modified to support nPartition platforms.
PAGE 65
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems New and Modified Hard Partition Commands might not be so apparent to those accessing the firmware using other means. For the primary path, the boot action corresponds to the Autoboot and Autosearch flags in the following manner: Table 4-2 AutoBoot (setboot -b) nPartition Boot Actions AutoSearch (setboot -s) nPartition Boot Action off off Go to the Boot Console Handler (BCH) and prompt the user. on off Attempt the primary path; on failure go to BCH.
PAGE 66
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Partition Manager (parmgr) Partition Manager (parmgr) Partition Manager (parmgr), supports the initial and ongoing configuration of systems that support nPartitions, (such as Superdome systems), and also provides extensive information about the status of a Superdome complex. Partition Manager can be installed on any HP computer system that supports nPartitions, subject to the system requirements listed in “System Requirements” on page 66.
PAGE 67
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Partition Manager (parmgr) NOTE For documentation about Partition Manager in previous releases of HP-UX 11i v1, see HP-UX 11i December 2002 Release Notes, available at http://docs.hp.com. Additional Information For detailed information about using Partition Manager, consult the online help installed from the PARMGR-HELP file set. Within Partition Manager, the help can be accessed through the Help menu on the tool bar.
PAGE 68
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems Service Processor (GSP or MP) Service Processor (GSP or MP) Each of HP’s nPartition servers include a service processor that provides server-wide status, maintenance, and console interfaces. NOTE The service processor in HP servers is sometimes called the Management Processor (MP) and sometimes the Guardian Service Processor (GSP).
PAGE 69
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems hd_fabric Driver hd_fabric Driver new at 11i original Although the HP-UX 11i v1 install kernel does not include a /stand/system entry for release the new 11i driver, hd_fabric, an entry is added to the system file as part of the installation process on nPartition systems. When the /usr/sbin/mk_kernel command builds a kernel, the hd_fabric driver is then built into the HP-UX kernel. This only affects nPartition systems.
PAGE 70
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems New Attention Indicator Behavior New Attention Indicator Behavior updated for September 2001 The fruled command and Partition Manager now blink the attention indicators (LEDs) on HP Superdome cells and I/O chassis rather than illuminating them in a steady-on state, as was the case with the original 11i v1 release. Likewise, on HP rp7410 and rp8400 servers, the fruled command and Partition Manager behaviors are to blink cell attention indicators.
PAGE 71
nPartition (Hard Partition) Systems New Attention Indicator Behavior However, it wasn’t until the HP-UX 11i June 2001 release that SAM and Partition Manager started to blink PCI slot attention indicators during tasks involving PCI cards or card slots. As a result, sites that have HP Superdome servers running both the original HP-UX 11i v1 release and the HP-UX 11i June 2001 (or later) release can have attention indicators at different states (steady-on and blinking).

Four patches (PHKL_25712, PHCO_25831, PHKL_24854, and PHKL_25218) are required for the c8xx driver.
PAGE 89
Workstation/Server Specific Information Service Processor (GSP or MP) Service Processor (GSP or MP) NOTE The service processor in HP servers is sometimes called the Management Processor (MP) and sometimes the Guardian Service Processor (GSP). Regardless of the name, the service processor in these servers provides approximately the same features and performs essentially the same role. Throughout this document the term “service processor” refers to both the MP and GSP service processors.
PAGE 90
Workstation/Server Specific Information Service Processor (GSP or MP) GSP Logging Capabilities The introduction of GSP to the above platforms dramatically changes the way chassis operations and diagnostic evaluations are performed on a running system. The new subsystem requires HP-UX to provide more information than was provided on previous platforms. HP-UX will continue to output the same chassis-codes and forward-progress indicators that have been provided in previous releases.

PAGE 186
Installation Update-UX Update-UX You can update an existing HP-UX 10.20 or 11.0 system to 11i v1 using the new update-ux command. Beginning at 11i v1, this command replaces swgettools to perform OS updates. With it, you can also add a new Operating Environment (OE), change an OE, or change the OS word-width from 32- to 64-bit on appropriate systems. For more information on the update-ux command, see the HP-UX 11i Installation and Update Guide.
PAGE 187
Installation Software Distributor Software Distributor Software Distributor (SD) is the HP-UX administration tool set used to deliver and maintain HP-UX operating systems and layered software applications. Delivered as part of HP-UX, SD can help you: • Manage your OS, patches, and application software on HP-UX systems. • Organize, standardize, and distribute software to your customers. • Handle complex delivery challenges such as testing complete solutions for the commercial and technical desktop.
PAGE 188
Installation Software Distributor Change in swlist Hides Superseded Patches by Default In 11.0, swlist shows all installed patches including superseded ones. However, the 11i default behavior is not to show superseded patches. This can be overcome, returning to 11.0 standard behavior, by setting -x show_superseded_patches=true on the swlist command line or in the defaults files. 64-bit Capability Determined from System, Not /etc/.supported_bits In 11.0, SD-UX reads the /etc/.
PAGE 189
Installation Software Distributor Layout Version No Longer Converted Automatically In 11.0 SD-UX, commands automatically converted Installed Product Database (IPD) and depot catalogs to layout version 1.0 or the layout version specified via the -x layout_version=... option on the command line. In 11i, no SD-UX command will automatically convert the layout version of an existing target, IPD, or depot catalog, even if the -x layout_version=... option is specified on the command line.
PAGE 190
Installation Software Distributor Newest Bundle Selected by Default Previously, when you specified an unqualified bundle name for selection and the bundle name was ambiguous due to multiple revisions, SD-UX printed out an “ambiguous bundle” error message. Now, SD-UX selects the newest version of the bundle by default. This change in behavior makes bundle selection consistent with what SD-UX does for products and filesets when multiple versions of these are available in the source.
PAGE 191
Installation Software Distributor The 11i autoselect_patches option (TRUE by default) automatically selects patches to match software selected for installation. It lets you install patches at the same time you install base software. In addition to the base software selected by the match_target option, the autoselect_patches option provides the means for selecting appropriate patches during the update process. Patch Filtering With 11i, you can more interactively manage your patch process via Patch Filtering.
PAGE 192
Installation set_parms Enhanced Step 3. In the “Filter...” text field, add the desired filters to the *.* . (For example, to select only the critical patches, the Filter... field would appear as *.*,c=critical. Likewise, to install all the patches that are critical OR hardware_enablement, the Filter...field should appear as *.*,c=critical|hardware_enablement.) Step 4. Select OK. Clicking the Filter... button will display a list of the predefined category tags already formatted for use in the Filter...

10 Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters What’s in This Chapter? This chapter covers the following topics: • HP-UX Gang Scheduling (see page 216) • Kernel Threads vs.
PAGE 216
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters HP-UX Gang Scheduling HP-UX Gang Scheduling new at 11i original release This release includes the ability to “gang schedule” MPI (Message Passing Interface) applications and multi-threaded processes. The gang scheduler permits a set of MPI processes, or multiple threads from a single process, to be scheduled concurrently as a group. Only applications using the HP-UX 11.0 (or later) MPI or pthread libraries can be gang scheduled.
PAGE 217
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Kernel Threads vs. CMA Threads Kernel Threads vs. CMA Threads new at 11i original release The CMA threads (libcma) package, which is POSIX P1003.1a (Draft 4) compliant, is based on Concert Multi Thread Architecture (CMA). CMA is a user-level threads package in which thread scheduling and synchronization are handled within the user space without the kernel's assistance. CMA threads have been deprecated (slated for future obsolescence) at HP-UX 11i.
PAGE 218
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Large Private Data Space Large Private Data Space new at 11i original release An additional 1 to 2GB of private address space is now supported for 32-bit programs (if enabled on a per process basis), at the expense of shared memory address space. This change increases the amount of private data space available for a process.
PAGE 219
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Large Private Data Space advantage of the new malloc() for a program that uses a shared version of the C library. A program that was linked with a non-shared library version of the C library, however, will need to be re-linked. These changes have no compatibility impacts if the feature is not enabled. This feature can only be enabled for 32-bit programs running on the 64-bit version of HP-UX.
PAGE 220
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Memory Windows Memory Windows Running without memory windows, HP-UX has limitations for shared resources on 32-bit applications. All applications in the system are limited to a total of 1.75GB of shared memory (2.75GB if compiled as SHMEM_MAGIC). In a system with 16GB of physical memory, only 1.75 can be used for shared resources.
PAGE 221
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Memory Windows To enable memory windows, set the kernel tunable parameter max_mem_window to the desired amount. Customers can change this value by placing the desired value in their kernel configuration file. The system must be rebooted for the new value to take effect.
PAGE 222
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters HP-UX SCA Process and Memory Management HP-UX SCA Process and Memory Management new at 11i original release For compatibility reasons, the HP-UX 11i release supports the Scalable Computing Architecture (SCA) programming, locality management, and memory management features that were introduced at HP-UX 11.10 for the HP V-Class SCA servers.
PAGE 223
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Dynamic Tunables Dynamic Tunables new at 11i original release A new facility has been added which will allow the retrieving of all tunable values and the setting of a limited number of tunables. If a tunable is dynamic, a change will take place immediately, without the need to reboot the system. Such changes will persist across reboots.

Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Asynchronous Disk Pseudo Driver (async) Compatibility Asynchronous Disk Pseudo Driver (async) Compatibility new at 11i original release The async driver is used mostly by databases for doing asynchronous I/O to the disk. Applications that use the async driver must be owned by the superuser, or by a user who is a member of a group for which the privileges include MLOCK.
PAGE 225
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters System-V InterProcess Communications (IPC) System-V InterProcess Communications (IPC) System-V IPC Message Queue Enhancement new at 11i original release System-V IPC is the System-V InterProcess Communications package developed by AT&T and comprises mechanisms for arbitrary processes to send and receive data “messages,” share virtual address space, and use semaphores to synchronize execution. This enhancement applies only to the message subsystem.
PAGE 226
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters System-V InterProcess Communications (IPC) operate properly even with larger queues. Even some of those programs which do use the fields may do so in such a manner that the inaccuracy does not adversly affect program behavior. These concerns arise only for separately-built binaries which share common message queues.
PAGE 227
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters System-V InterProcess Communications (IPC) Compatibility Issues The change from a hard-coded SEMMSL to a dynamic tunable is transparent to applications. In releases prior to 11i, a “SEMMSL” symbol was hardcoded to 2048 in sys/sem.h. This symbol will no longer always be an accurate representation of the maximum number of semaphores in a set. Uses of the symbol in programs should be removed.
PAGE 228
Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters SCSI Queue Depth Management SCSI Queue Depth Management new at 11i original release If you have multiple active paths to a SCSI device (LUN), you might need to manage your device queue depths to maximize the device’s performance. This is particularly true with dynamic multi-pathing applications—such as EMC’s PowerPath application—which allow all multiple paths to a LUN to be in use simultaneously.

Process, Threads, Memory, and Kernel Parameters Changes to mpctl() System Call Changes to mpctl() System Call new at 11i original release Some extensions have made to the mpctl() system call interface to pre-enable processor set functionality in the HP-UX 11i release. The mpctl() interface provides command requests to query system information, such as the total number of processors and locality domains in the system, and the IDs of all processors and locality domains.

Security HP-UX Kerberos Server Version 2.0 HP-UX Kerberos Server Version 2.0 updated for June 2002 As of June 2002, HP-UX Kerberos Server 2.0 is available on the Application Release CD. The current version of the Kerberos server supersedes the earlier MIT based Kerberos server (version 1.0), on HP-UX 11i. This version of the Kerberos server offers many enhancements when compared to the previous version. This section discusses the salient features of HP's Kerberos server V 2.0.
PAGE 282
Security HP-UX Kerberos Server Version 2.0 High Availability In the event of the primary server crashing or going down, the secondary server (backup) can immediately be made the primary server. This provides for high availability in the case of mission critical applications. Also, the Kerberos server daemon (kdcd) is always monitored by a parent process. If the child process dies/crashes it will automatically spawn a new server daemon. Propagation In the Kerberos Server version 1.

14 Compatibility What’s in This Chapter? This chapter describes various compatibility issues between HP-UX 11.0 and 11i. • Compatibility from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i (see page 284) • Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.
PAGE 284
Compatibility Compatibility from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i Compatibility from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i HP has a long record of providing HP-UX compatibility. Because it protects your investment and allows you to upgrade easily, compatibility is an important feature that HP has always recognized and that HP customers have come to expect. Compatibility requirements span across HP-UX products to third-party products as well.
PAGE 285
Compatibility Compatibility from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i NOTE • Does not use documented features that are specifically described as having platform, architecture, or configuration limitations • Does not decompose an HP-UX product and then reuse the results of the decomposition For compatibility issues relevant to a particular component, see the corresponding section elsewhere in this document. Binary Compatibility An application that has run on HP-UX 11.
PAGE 286
Compatibility Compatibility from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i • Archive and shared relocatable object compatibility: An executable that is created by linking with a shared library that has dependencies on an archive library (a situation that typically occurs when linking with archive system libraries) is not supported. • Data model relocatable object compatibility: An executable created by linking with a mixture of 32-bit and 64-bit objects is not supported. The loader will not permit this.
PAGE 287
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i In the following sections, a short description of an 11i change is followed by details of the compatibility exception with which it is associated. Please note that all of these compatibility exceptions are rare corner cases for well-behaved applications.
PAGE 288
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i have to use HP_LD_FDP_INIT_NS instead. If the HP_LD_FDP_INIT_NS environment variable is not set and fdp_init_ns.o is in the default location, the link will fail with the file not found error message. • ONC+/NFS Security Correction This change corrects a security problem in NIS+. However, applications that are linked to the archived version of the libnsl library may have a compatibility problem.
PAGE 289
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i • MAX_PROCS Changed to Enable 128 CPU Support This change enables support for 128 CPUs. The kernel macro MAX_PROCS has changed from 32 to 128 in the LP64 kernel and has changed the ABI for the undocumented system calls ki_call() and ktest_ioctl(). The MAX_PROCS change will cause an ABI incompatibility for kernel-intrusive applications or drivers which access internal kernel arrays sized by the MAX_PROCS macro.
PAGE 290
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i • Support Tools Manager User Interface, EMS Hardware Monitors This change improves the usability for the STM User Interface and the EMS Hardware Monitors. As a result, any script that depends on the specific output of the EMS Hardware Monitors or specific commands or displays in the STM User Interface may have to be modified. See “HP-UX Support Tools (Diagnostics): STM, ODE, & EMS Hardware Monitors” on page 117 for more information.
PAGE 291
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i • Tighter Security for NFS Mounts This change is necessary to improve the security of NFS mounts. Without this change, when you export a file system using the root= option of exportfs, NFS-clients on the root= option are allowed to mount the NFS file system even when they don't appear on the rw= list and/or access= list.
PAGE 292
Compatibility Known Compatibility Exceptions from HP-UX 11.0 to 11i • SD Changes Behavior with Unknown Attributes This change allows packagers to use new attributes in their software packages without requiring SD to know the attribute. Specifically, the swpackage program will no longer print error messages when an unrecognized attribute is encountered. However, you must be careful when naming attributes because typographical errors will no longer be reported.

Compatibility Obsolescence and Deprecation of APIs Obsolescence and Deprecation of APIs obsoleted for June Portable File System is obsolete, and no longer supported on any HP-UX release. The 2004 PFS file system interfaces will be discontinued (no longer delivered) on HP-UX 11i v3. See “Portable File System (PFS) Obsoleted” on page 232. The following section defines the obsolescence of core system libraries and relocatable objects. Obsolescence of other products are covered in separate sections.

Programming HP-UX Software Transition Kit (STK) HP-UX Software Transition Kit (STK) The HP-UX Software Transition Kit (STK) aids in transitioning your software from HP-UX 10.20 and 11.0 to HP-UX 11i, from 32-bit to 64-bit, and from PA platforms to Itanium-based platforms. To do this, many tools are available to help you resolve issues such as those involving data models and API changes.
PAGE 302
Programming Libraries Libraries aC++ Runtime (libCsup*, libstd*, libstream*, librwtool*) The aC++ runtime provides the run-time environment necessary for deploying C++ based (aC++ compiled) applications on HP-UX 11i. new at 11i original release This release of the aC++ runtime includes a new ANSI-compliant Standard C++ library. (The previous version of the runtime included the “classic” C++ STL library that corresponded to the pre-standard [Sept. 1998] definition of the C++ language and library.
PAGE 303
Programming Libraries Documentation Detailed manpages for the new library are included with the Independent Software Unit release. The new library is also discussed in aC++ Online Help. Changes to libc • Large Files Support for C++ Applications To support large files for C++ applications, libc has been modified. C++ applications can now access files greater than 2 GB. This is done by setting _FILE_OFFSET_BITS to 64 in 32-bit mode. More details can be found in the HP-UX Large Files White Paper Version 1.
PAGE 304
Programming Libraries where the number of arenas is 8, and the expansion size is 32*4096 bytes. In general, the more arenas you use, the smaller the expansion factor should be, and vice versa. _M_SBA_OPTS turns on the small block allocator, and sets up parameters for the small block allocator, namely, maxfast, grain, num_smallblocks. Refer to mallopt() for details about the small block allocator, and its parameters. Applications usually run faster with the small block allocator turned on rather than off.
PAGE 305
Programming Libraries Two new libraries are added: /usr/lib/libcres.a and /usr/lib/pa20_64/libcres.a. These archive libraries include the common string and memory functions along with a improved performance qsort routine. A few other selected small routines are also included. The intent of this library is to allow an application to link to this library archived while linking the application as a whole shared.
PAGE 306
Programming Libraries Any performance gains for an application are highly dependent on the application’s use of libc.sl and what interfaces in this library are used. The fastcall technology will be delivered with all systems. If there are compatibility concerns, the applications should not be built with this technology. More API's in libc may make use of the fastcall technology in future releases. Appropriate changes to the header files will be delivered to track these changes.
PAGE 307
Programming Libraries tracked. When the number of tracked objects reaches about 20,000, the user CPU time with the splay tree is about half the user CPU time for the old nftw(). At 100,000 tracked inodes, the user CPU time is about 90% less for the splay tree. Another performance improvement to nftw() eliminated calls to access() by checking the mode bits in the stat() buffer. This decreased system CPU time by approximately 4%.
PAGE 308
Programming Libraries There are two portions to the thread private cache: one for ordinary blocks and one for small blocks. Small blocks are blocks that are allocated by the small block allocator (SBA), which is configured with the environment variable _M_SBA_OPTS or by calls to mallopt(3C). The small block cache is automatically active whenever both the ordinary block cache and the SBA are active. The ordinary block cache is active only when it is configured by setting _M_CACHE_OPTS.
PAGE 309
Programming Libraries The malloc() per-thread cache is a heuristic which may or may not benefit a given kernel-threaded application that makes intensive use of malloc. Only by trying different configurations can you determine whether any speed improvement can be obtained from per-thread cache for a given application, and what the optimal tuning is for that application.
PAGE 310
Programming Libraries Changes to libm The fesetround() and fehold() functions in fenv.h have been upgraded to the latest ISO C9x specification. Previously the functions returned nonzero to indicate success and zero to indicate failure; now they return zero to indicate success and nonzero to indicate failure. Any code that depended on the return value will need to change.
PAGE 311
Programming Miscellaneous Miscellaneous The pstat_getfile() Interface Deprecated deprecated for June 2004 The pstat_getfile() interface is used to get information specific to a particular open file for a specified process. The pstat_getfile() interface has been deprecated and should not be used. It will be removed in a future HP-UX release. A second interface, pstat_getfile2(), should be used in its place as it provides a much more scalable interface.
PAGE 312
Programming Miscellaneous From the OS-Core.C-KRN fileset: — /bin/cc -> /usr/ccs/bin/cc — /lib/cpp -> /usr/ccs/lbin/cpp The bundled C compiler is in the default path (/usr/ccs/bin) and will not be linked. NOTE From the DCE-CoreTools.DCE-BPRG and DCE-Core.DCE-CORE-RUN filesets: — /opt/dcelocal/lib/libdce.a -> /opt/dce/lib/libdce.a — /usr/lib/libbomb.a -> /opt/dce/lib/libbomb.a — /etc/dce.clean -> /opt/dce/bin/dce.

Programming Miscellaneous — /usr/bin/yacc -> /opt/langtools/bin/yacc — /usr/bin/lex -> /opt/langtools/bin/lex Perl Programming Language See “Perl Programming Language” on page 129. Linker and Object File Tools (ld, crt0.o, dld.sl, libdld.sl, chatr, and odump) new at 11i original release The following list summarizes the changes to linker and object file tools. Details for several of the linker changes follow the lists. Linker Changes • Incremental linking supported in 64-bit ld and elfdump.
PAGE 314
Programming Miscellaneous Details of Linker Changes Incremental linking: Incremental linking provides significant linktime improvements for compile-link-debug development cycles by processing only those input files that are actually modified between cycles. Files that are not modified do not need to be reprocessed. For large application, incremental linking may provide up to 10x (and sometimes greater) improvements in linktime.
PAGE 315
Programming Miscellaneous • Performance shows a definite improvement: — 32-bit ld: approximately 30% link time improvement — 64-bit ld: approximately 8% link time improvement • Support OBJDEBUG architecture in both 32-bit and 64-bit linker. • Added support for executable stack. • Added global symbol table support. • Added support for object code repository reuse. Neither functionality nor compatibility are affected by the code changes.
PAGE 316
Programming Miscellaneous NOTE While the DCE library (libdcekt) has been ported to 64-bit, the binaries and daemons that are part of the DCE products are still 32-bit. The distinction between the International and US/Canada version of DCE components has been removed. That is, the 56-bit Data Encryption Standard (DES) which was earlier restricted to US/Canada is now available for all customers.
PAGE 317
Programming Miscellaneous • DMS_FORCEON: DCE Measurement Service (DMS) provides performance instrumentation for DCE servers and for the server side of applications that use DCE RPCs. When DMS is enabled, it collects data about RPCs that execute in the target process. The collected data is actually displayed using HP GlancePlus. By default, DMS is disabled. DMS can be enabled exporting DMS_FORCEON=1.
PAGE 318
Programming Miscellaneous NOTE This release includes an enhanced version of pstat(). This version repairs some existing defects by adding more fields in pst_status struct to return process children usage information. The pstat (2) manpage reflects this added functionality. The enhancement poses no problem for 11.0 executables running on 11.0 Extension Pack or 11i, nor for any executables running on 11.0 Extension Pack, as long as they do not rely on the additional functionality.
PAGE 319
Programming Miscellaneous pst_fid Used to efficiently re-access the opened files. This value is returned by pstat_getfile2(), pstat_getproc(), and pstat_getprocvm() calls. This ID is then passed to subsequent PSTAT calls such as pstat_getsocket() to efficiently re-access the opened files. pst_filedetails This data structure contains detailed information specific to a particular open file. For a specified file, there is only one instance of this structure.
PAGE 320
Programming Miscellaneous Machine Identifier Changes to confstr new at 11i original release New machine identifier, partition identifier, and serial number parameters have been defined for the confstr() library function. The new parameters for confstr() are defined as follows: _CS_MACHINE_IDENT Identifier for each physical machine. Returned as an opaque string of printable ascii characters.This string has the same value for all partitions in a physical machine.

Internationalization EURO (ISO 8859-15 Locales) EURO (ISO 8859-15 Locales) Euro support is provided via locale support for the ISO 8859-15 character set. ISO 8859-15 is a newly ratified character set that differs from ISO 8859-1 in that it supports eight new characters. Specific enhancements are provided to allow Euro display, input, and processing capabilities. Fourteen new locales have been created based on ISO 8859-15: Table 16-9 New Locales Locale Language (Country) C.iso885915 “C” da_DK.

Internationalization EURO (ISO 8859-15 Locales) encounter a change to the decimal and thousands separators for the currency, whereas decimal and thousands separators outside the monetary area stay the same as in previous locales. For example, in the French locale, the thousands separator is a space and the decimal point is a comma. However, the international standard for the thousands separator for the euro currency is a period. So, a user that has the LC_MONETARY locale category set to “fr_FR.
