Versions Documented Below: 1.0.0
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
VERSION/DATE: 1.0.0/2001-05-16 (beta1)
BUG FIXES:
- None.
ENHANCEMENTS:
- None.
KNOWN PROBLEMS:
- If PrimeAlert for Sun Cluster 2.2 is loaded on a host that is not a
Sun Cluster 2.2 node, the module will immediately become irrational.
See the TroubleShooting file for more details.
- The Processes table in the 'Local Cluster Processes' folder may show
the '% CPU' of a process to be 0 for a short time after the process
is started or re-started.
- For the included module(s), certain tables with more than 50 rows of
data may no longer display properly when using a SunMC 2.1.1 console.
This problem does not occur when using a SunMC 2.1 or 3.x console. If
you are still using the SunMC 2.1.1 console, and you are experiencing
the table display problem, then please contact Halcyon for a patch
(info@HalcyonInc.com).
- Assume that a user installs Sun Management Center in the /opt
directory, and then decides to relocate some of the installed
directories (located below /var/opt/SUNWsymon or below
/opt/SUNWsymon) after SunMC is installed. For example, assume that
the directory /opt/SUNWsymon/modules is moved to /export1/SUNWsymon,
and then a symbolic link is created to link /opt/SUNWsymon/modules to
/export1/SUNWsymon/modules. In this case, if the current distribution
attempts to install any files in or below the directory
/opt/SUNWsymon/modules, the symbolic link will be replaced by a real
directory. This problem does not occur under Solaris 2.5.1.
UPGRADE STRATEGY:
- In order to obtain the full benefit of the new features included in
this version of PrimeAlert for Sun Cluster 2.2, module packages for
PrimeAlert for Sun Cluster 2.2 should be upgraded for all SunMC
layers (server, agent and console).
- PrimeAlert for Sun Cluster 2.2 packages on the SunMC server host
should be upgraded first. Then, agent hosts can be upgraded according
to any user defined schedule. Note that after the server host is
upgraded, the Sun Cluster 2.2 module should continue to operate
properly for all agent hosts, regardless of the version of the module
that is installed on an agent host. Finally, after all server and
agent hosts have been upgraded, the console hosts should be upgraded
to ensure that the module help documentation is up-to-date.
- CAVEAT: After the server host has been upgraded, agent hosts that
contain older versions of PrimeAlert for Sun Cluster 2.2 may not
have all of the functionality of the newest module until the agent
hosts have also been upgraded to the same level as the server host.
