Patch Name: PHCO_28752 Patch Description: s700_800 10.26 savecore(1M) cumulative patch Creation Date: 03/03/18 Post Date: 03/03/28 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.26 s800: 10.26 Products: N/A Filesets: OS-Core.UX-CORE OS-Core.CORE-ENG-A-MAN Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Release Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHCO_28752 Symptoms: PHCO_28752: 1. Savecore does not create core files at syshi. PHCO_17665: If the dump area is beyond 2Gb on the physical disk, the following error message results when savecore attempts to read the dump: savecore: seek failed : savecore: could not open dump Defect Description: PHCO_28752: 1. Savecore does not create core files at syshi because the kernel core files are not MAC protected. Resolution: 1. Savecore has been modified to create core files at syshi. PHCO_17665: When the size of a dump device is greater than 4Gb, savecore cannot access the dump. The savecore command will fail with: savecore: seek failed : savecore: could not open dump The will tend to be random as savecore is reporting an error that did not really occur. Resolution: Ported the latest version of the savecore which contains the 10.20 patch PHCO_12822 that fixes this problem. Device size can now be up to 4Gb.
