Installing V5.1B-4 to an Alternate Root (Jan. 2007)

To use the dupatch root option to install Version 5.1B-4 to an alternate root path, you must

first install the latest patch tools. To do this:

1. Download the Version 5.1-4 kit.

2. Extract the kit into a convenient directory.

3. Change directory to the one containing the kit and run dupatch. This automatically installs

the latest tools if they are not already installed on the system.

4. Select quit from the Main Menu.

5. Rerun dupatch with the root option to install Version 5.1B-4 to an alternate root path.

Version 5.1B-3 (Patch Kit 5)

The following notes pertain to Version 5.1B-3.

Script Displays Nonexistent Command Name to Remove Cluster Member (May 2005)

When installing a Tru64 UNIX patch kit using the no-roll procedure and a cluster member is

down, the noroll_versw script may display a message containing a nonexistent command

to be used for removing a cluster member.

This occurs if the patch kit installs a patch that requires the use of a version switch. In that case,

you would see a message similar to the following at the end of dupatch session:

Patch OSFPAT00074200510 has been identified as needing a version

switch. Once the following reboot is complete, please enter the

"/var/adm/patch/noroll/noroll_versw" command from any cluster member.

Because the noroll_versw script expects all members to be up, running it when a member

is down causes a message similar to the following to be displayed:

The noroll_versw command cannot continue because members 'member1'

of this cluster are not up. Please reboot these members before

re-attempting this command or remove the members using the

clu_remove_member(8) command

However, there is no clu_remove_member command. The message should refer to the

clu_delete_member member.
