 Advisory Information
 

LAST UPDATE: 2007-04-03

DESCRIPTION

This patch corrects an AdvFS problem that results in vdump command not backing up large advfs files (> 8GB) properly

Programs using the fcntl (F_GETMAP) call for AdvFS files greater than 8GB will not receive correct extentMap information. For programs such as vdump, this results in files greater than 8GB not being backed up properly.

 
SCOPE

The following version is affected:

HP Tru64 UNIX v 5.1B-4

 
RESOLUTION

HP is releasing the following Early Release Patch kit (ERP) publicly for use by any customer. The ERP kit uses dupatch to install and will not install over any Customer Specific Patches (CSPs) that have file intersections with the ERP.

The fixes contained in this ERP kit are targeted for availability in the next mainstream patch kit:

HP Tru64 UNIX v 5.1B-5

The kit distributes the following file:

/sys/BINARY/advfs.mod
