Patch Name: PHCO_4439 Patch Description: s700 9.X cumulative mount(1M) and umount(1M) patch /etc/mount patch for s700 with new libc patch PHCO_3703 linked in. The main function provided the hostname fallback capability. /etc/umount is dynamically linked so PHCO_3703 must be installed for umount to use hostname fallback. Corrects the problem of "mount -a" failing if unable to mount a CDROM drive. With this fix, if the command "mount -a" cannot mount the CDROM drive, it will continue on to mount all other devices, but return an error. Previously, mount would exit immediately if it encountered a CDROM mount fail. PHCO_4143: --------- Fixes problems of "mount -a" returning non-zero value even though mounts were successful, and of mount & umount going into infinite loop if /etc/mnttab is locked. PHCO_4060: --------- mount(1M) is fixed so that it will not allow nfs mounts with the quota option ("-o quota"). mount(1M) will generate a warning message to tell the operator not to run fsck if the device is already mounted, as in the case of SwitchOver. PHCO_3208: --------- This patch fixes a problem in /etc/mount where the /etc/mnttab entry for an HP OmniStorage filesystem was not being updated properly. PHCO_2718: --------- "-at nfs" option for umount(1M) causes core dump Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700/9.X/PHCO_4439 Effective Date: 940627 Repost: 95/07/21 The patch was modified to allow installation on HP-UX 9.07.

Note: Please back up your system before you patch. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- After getting the patch onto your machine, unshar the patch (sh PHCO_4439). To install this patch do the following: 1) Run /etc/update (Note: you must be logged in as root to update a system). 2) Once in the update "Main Menu" move the highlighted line to "Change Source or Destination ->" and press "Return" or "Select Item". 3) Make sure the highlighted item in the "Change Source or Destination" window is "From Tape Device to Local System ...", then press "Return" or "Select Item". 4) You should now be in the "From Tape Device to Local System" window. Change the "Source: /dev/rmt/0m" to "Source: /tmp/PHCO_4439.updt" (this assumes that you are in the /tmp directory where PHCO_4439.updt has been placed). Note: You must enter the complete path name. 5) Press "Done". 6) From here on follow the standard directions for update. The customized script that update runs will move the original software to /system/PHCO_4439/orig. HP recommends keeping this software there in order to recover from any potential problems. It is also recommended that you move the PHCO_4439.text file to /system/PHCO_4439 to be retained for future reference. If you wish to put this patch on a magnetic tape and update from the tape drive, dd a copy of the patch to the tape drive. As an example the following will create a copy of the patch that update can read: dd if=PHCO_4439.updt of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2048
