DescriptionDefect ID
A defect in swinstall's analysis phase was allowing a bundle wrapper to be
installed even when a checkinstall script returned GLOBAL_ERROR.

The SD Provider does not return the key bindings from the enumerateInstances()
method. The DMTF and CIM standard requires the values be returned by the
method.
JAGaf72362
The query_systemfile() function in /usr/lbin/sw/control_utils is fixed to resolve
expressions such as 2*NPROC correctly. Previously it treated multiply followed
JAGaf73432
by a variable name as a comment and stripped it out, even if there was no
whitespace between the multiply character and variable name. With this fix
it treats 2*NPROC as part of the expression when there is no whitespace
between the multiply character and variable name.
Fixed a memory lead in the common modules that process Vendor Defined
Attributes (VDAs).
JAGaf73532
The SD agent was modified so it will not treat the failure to remove a backup
file as a fileset error.
JAGaf73605
The error message is improved for the expected abort of SD commands when
invoked by non-root user with environment variable
PTHREAD_COMPAT_MODE is set to 1.
JAGaf74371
When a system's hostname cannot be resolved and swinstall is used to install
from a remote depot, then swinstall core dumps.
JAGaf75216
This release of SD adds integration into SMH (System Management
Homepage).

DescriptionDefect ID
Certain messages were not structured well for translating into other languages.JAGae59730
In an interactive swinstall or swcopy session, if the analysis phase fails because
all selected filesets were skipped or excluded, and if some of those filesets
JAGaf10364
were excluded in order to avoid creating a split patch (i.e., the
"allow_split_patches" option was set to its default value of "false"), then SD
will incorrectly report this as a Disk Space Analysis failure even when there
is sufficient disk space available to complete the operation.
This problem would typically occur when trying to install or copy a patch, if
one of the patch's filesets is excluded due to a missing dependency or
supersession conflict.
SD was modified so it will avoid doing these lookups when the string does
not represent a host.
The 1.2.4 version of gzip delivered with HP-UX does not support files larger
than 2 gigabytes. This fix upgrades gzip to version 1.3.5, which supports
files larger than 2 gigabytes.
JAGaf19697
When "run_as_superuser=false", access to a remote source depot fails with
an internal error in swagentd.
JAGaf23784
The swpackage command is limited to 2GB when writing to a serial depot
file.
JAGaf30687
When a .o file is patched, SD will dynamically create an archive library to
contain it if the library does not already exist. If the patch is then removed,
the empty archive library is left on the system.
