2 Choosing and Installing the Software You Need This chapter provides a brief overview of the CDs included in this kit and points you to the information you need to install the software. Overview of Version 5.1B-6 CDs This kit contains six primary CDs. The following list describes the contents of these disks and tells you what you need to know to get your system up and running as quickly as possible: • Version 5.1B-6 CD This disk contains the problem fixes for version 5.1B-6.
Installing the Software The procedure you use to install the components of your kit depends on the current state of your system. The following list can get you started with the most common installation procedures: • Installing on new, updated, or pre-installed operating systems If this is a new or update (from a pre-Version 5.1B system) installation, or an installation that was preinstalled (called factory installed systems, or FIS), begin by reviewing the Tru64 UNIX Installation Guide . See Section 1.
text reader (PatchInstallGuide.txt). This document will guide you through the steps to install this kit. Accessing the Documentation CD To read the Tru64 UNIX documentation on a Tru64 UNIX system, follow these steps: 1. Log in as superuser. 2. Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive and mount it as follows: # mount /dev/disk/cdromNa/usr/share/doclib/online In this command, N is the unit number of your CD-ROM device.
3 Release Notes This chapter provides release notes that are specific to Version 5.1B-6 and the TruCluster Server software product. “Installation Release Notes”, “Kit Removal Release Notes”, and “Cluster-Specific Installation and Removal Release Notes” provide information you need to be aware of when installing or removing Version 5.1B-6. “General Release Notes” describes issues you may encounter and, when available, provides workarounds you can use. If you have not previously patched your Version 5.
To work around this problem, run the dupatch baseline process before installing Version 5.1B-5 or higher. The following steps will guide you through the process: 1. Make a backup copy of the /sbin/init.d/snmpd script. For example: # cp /sbin/init.d/snmpd /tmp An alternative to backing up this file, in which you manually modify it, is provided following step 7. 2. Run the Version 5.1B-5 or higher dupatch utility and select Option 5, Patch Baseline Analysis/Adjustment.
or higher the snmpd script is replaced by the original version provided in the base version of the Insight Management Agents kit. It is recommended that any existing version of Tru64 UNIX Insight Management Agents kit (CQPIMxxx kit, where xxx=310, 320, 370, and so on) be uninstalled prior to Version 5.1B-5 or higher update and CPQIM370 kit with latest available CPQIM370 patches be re-installed after 5.1B-5 or higher update. The CPQIM kit is available at the site: http://h30097.www3.hp.com/cma/.
NOTE: With BIND 9, CNAME entries no longer accept quotes. For example, "hosts-1" IN CNAME A needs to be changed to hosts-1 IN CNAME A. inetd Daemon Restart Required Because of changes made to the Internet services daemon introduced in this release, you need to stop and then restart inetd after installing or removing this kit. You can do this from the command line or by using the sysman application. From the command line, enter the following commands: # /sbin/init.d/inetd stop # /sbin/init.
# /sbin/advfs/fixfdmn fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Clearing the fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Checking for fixfdmn: Checking for fixfdmn: Checking for fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Checking the fixfdmn: Completed. domain_name RBMT. log on volume /dev/disk/dsk10c. BMT mcell data. deferred delete list. root tag file. tag file(s).
# /usr/sbin/cdsa/mod_install -f -i -s \ /usr/lib/cdsa/libt64csp.so -d /usr/lib/cdsa/ Message Seen During Reboot Can Be Ignored The following error message is displayed after you reboot your system the first time after installing Version 5.1B-4 or higher: AllowCshrcSourcingWithSubsystems is not valid ForcePTTYAllocation is not valid IdentityFile is not valid AuthorizationFile is not valid These messages are caused by a new version of SSH included in Version 5.
Script Must Be Run When Returning to Prepatched System If removing this patch kit restores your system to a prepatched state, you must run the /etc/ dn_fix_dat.sh script before rebooting your system during the patch-deletion process. This situation occurs if Version 5.1B-2, or higher, is the only Tru64 UNIX patch kit installed on your 5.1B system.
You can ignore this message. In all cases, the subsets are installed correctly. Installed CSP Might Affect dupatch Cloning Process If you have installed customer-specific patches (CSPs) on your system, you might see a message similar to the following when installing this kit using the dupatch cloning process, at which time the cloning process is terminated: Inspecting 69 patches for possible system conflicts ... ./usr/bin/ls: is installed by Customer Specific Patch (CSP): - Tru64_UNIX_V5.
Creation of Some MFS File Systems Depends on Version Switch During the installation of this kit, MFS file systems that are 4 GB and larger (or 2 GB and larger if a 1024-byte sector size is used) cannot be created until after the version switch is thrown. See the Patch Kit Installation Instructions for information about the version switch.
5. 6. Run dupatch on your single system or on a cluster using the rolling upgrade procedure to delete Version 5.1B-5 (as described in the Patch Kit Installation Instructions), up to the point where the kernel is rebuilt and the system must be booted. Reboot the single system or each member of the cluster. NOTE: This step requires that you reboot each cluster member to remove Version 5.1B-6.
Tru64 UNIX Rebranding Results in File Changes As a consequence of the rebranding of Tru64 UNIX from the Compaq name to HP, the following files have changed: • version.abbrev_vendor from COMPAQ to HP • version.banner from Compaq Tru64 UNIX to HP Tru64 UNIX • version.vendor from Compaq Computer Corporation to Hewlett-Packard Company The .mrg..sysconfigtab file has been modified to incorporate these changes into the generic sysconfig subsystem in the /etc/sysconfigtab file.
Authentication Choice Affects sftp Transfer Rate The performance of secure FTP (sftp) will be always less than ftp due to the authentication and encryption involved in sftp communication. The transfer rate of sftp depends on the type of authentication it employs. You can achieve better transfer rate performance by choosing the Message Authentication Code (MAC) algorithm hmac-md5 for authentication, but at the cost of security. The default MAC is hmac-sha1, which is more secure than hmac-md5.
SIA sialog Use Limitation Required The Security Integration Architecture (SIA) sialog logging process is intended only for use in debugging SIA problems. It should not be enabled for extended periods of time. Doing so can cause login delays or other problems. Use the audit , not the sialog process , subsystem to monitor authentications on the system. To disable sialog debug logging, delete the /var/adm/sialog file.
