Table 4 Defects fixed in March 2009 Fixes
DescriptionDefect ID
The swinstall command has been changed to throw a WARNING message instead of an
ERROR message when an installation of a lower version of a component upon a higher
version on a system without "allow_downdate=true" option is attempted. The customer
expects the message to be changed from ERROR to WARNING.
QXCR1000473250
In addition to "*" as the hostname wildcard, swacl now supports "*" and "?" wildcards,
which can appear anywhere in the hostname.
QXCR1000790709
When a control file (e.g. checkinstall) path in the PSF is a symbolic link and
follow_symlinks was set to false (default), swpackage stored the size of the symbolic link
instead of the control file in the INFO files, due to which swverify on this depot or the
installed product reported errors. The fix resolves the control file symbolic links
irrespective of the value of follow_symlinks while retrieving the file information.
QXCR1000792118
swcopy failed to register a depot in multi-NIC system. This fix provides to extract aliases
from hostname lookup and compare aliases to fix problem in multi-NIC environments.
QXCR1000827962
"ERROR: Could not access remote file" is seen when installing from serial depots. It
happens when hostname and IP addresses are not configured properly. This fix provides
to extract aliases from hostname lookup and compare aliases to fix problem in multi-NIC
environments.
QXCR1000830713
SD might not work correctly on some systems that have one or more hostname aliases.
SD behavior is improved on some systems that have one or more hostname aliases.
QXCR1000830886
TUI/GUI was not accepting IPv6 address in hostname field. TUI/GUI was treating colon
seperated IPv6 address as hostname followed by pathname. Fix was given to validate
hostname followed by pathname based on "/" instead of ":".
QXCR1000834534
swinstall crashes with SIGSEGV. This CR fixes a problem that occurs while using SD-UX
Remote Operations and attempting to install software onto a target system. The install
succeeds but attempting to terminate the TUI/GUI session results in the session aborting
with a SIGSEGV.
QXCR1000836264
On a machine having multiple network interfaces, SD installed from Sep 2008
1111/1123/1131 ARs and Sep 2008 1131 OEs remains unaware of the second and subsequent
IP addresses. SD now handles correctly all IP addresses on a machine having multiple
network interfaces.
QXCR1000853466
"swmodify -x files=" was removing fileset if files option is null. This is modified and
swmodify will give a note message if -x option is null.
