SR 1653250886 With the inclusion of large file support at Dart 37 (February 1998 Application Release), a number of SMB handling routines were changed to handle 64 bit offsets. Unfortunately, in one case this change has led to a file locking problem with certain applications run from 16 bit clients such as Windows for Workgroups and Windows 95. -----[ ASU version B.03.01 ]----- 2.

Back up your system before installing a patch. 2. Login as root. 3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory. 4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch: cd /tmp sh PHNE_15261 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHNE_15261.depot 5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the server to install the patch on the server and the clients: swcluster -i -b This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and force all clients to be shut down. WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the patch installation. Installing the patch while the clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to serious problems. The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which you must specify: alternate root path - default is /export/shared_root/OS_700 source depot path - /tmp/PHNE_15261.depot To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install" from the Menubar. 5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster: - run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install the patch on the cluster server. - run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install the patch on the cluster clients. By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/patch/PHNE_15261. If you do not wish to retain a copy of the original software, you can create an empty file named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE. Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the patch cannot be deinstalled. Please be careful when using this feature. It is recommended that you move the PHNE_15261.text file to /var/adm/sw/patch for future reference. To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the tape drive, use the command: dd if=/tmp/PHNE_15261.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: Before installing PHNE_15261, shutdown NetBIOS and AS/U. Run asu_rmv prior to installing PHNE_15261. For more information, see the information in SD by selecting the ASU Fileset then choosing Actions -> Show Description Of Software When installing this patch, you will see the product number instead of the patch name in SD. This patch will update the entire Advanced Server/9000 product. Please note that since this patch replaces the entire product, previous versions of the files are not saved on the system and this patch cannot be backed out. Please perform a system backup before installing this patch. To backout the patch, restore from your backup. This patch will not log information to the PATCH.log logfile. After the installation, use /opt/asu/lanman/bin/asu_ver to verify the Advanced Server product revision numbers are B.03.02.02. Other product version numbers displayed by asu_ver, including RFC-NetBIOS, should remain unchanged.
