Fixes

The following defects are fixed in version A.01.02 of the HANFS toolkit. This is subject to change without notice. For the most current information contact your HP support representative.

Defect Number

Problem and Resolution

(JAGae78884)

Problem: When trying to configure the NFS toolkit for a Linux Serviceguard setup there appears to be a problem with the way the sync_rmtab command is working. It appears that the NFS toolkit is working as long as no NFS client has the filesystem mounted (so the /var/lib/nfs/rmtab would be empty). If there is an entry in the /var/lib/nfs/rmtab file the sync_rmtab command fails.

Resolution: The operation of copying the package's entries from sync_rmtab to rmtab was failing because the path of the temp_file was not specified. In sync_rmtab.c the file name was defined without the path. This has been changed to include the absolute path of the file.

Defect Number

Problem and Resolution

(JAGaf09215)

Problem: sync_rmtab sync and export do not match mounted subdirectories. “sync_rmtab sync /export/home” will only catch /export/home. It will not include /export/home/fred, /export/home/bob, etc.

Resolution: The pattern matching code in the sync_rmtab.c has been changed. The change allows the function to recognize subdirectories.

Defect Number

Problem and Resolution

(JAGaf15755)

Problem: There is a typographical error in hanfs.sh (HA NFS SG/LX toolkit). There is a call to “synchronize export”, but it should really be “synchronize_rmtab export”.

Resolution: The script hanfs.sh has been modified to call the correct function (i.e., synchronize_rmtab).

Defect Number

Problem and Resolution

(JAGaf17271)

Problem: /var/lib/nfs/rmtab grows out of control with the HA NFS toolkit, because of multiple entries. This can exhaust system resources.

Resolution: Multiple entries (like below) in the hanfs.sh were not properly handled in the sync function of sync_rmtab.c. (/export/home2 is common in all the entries in the following array).

XFS[0]=”-o rw,no_root_squash @rootgrp:/export/home2”XFS[1]=”-o rw @rootgrp:/export/home2”XFS[2]=”-o rw voodoo.kst.siemens.de:/export/home2”XFS[3]=”-o rw @home12grp:/export/home2”

The fix is to add a break statement after the first match, instead of looping to the end of the XFS array (which caused the duplicate entries).
