Symptoms:
	PHCO_29675:
	SR:8606187344 DTS:JAGad56551
	  When auto_parms is run on systems with many disks
	"Input line _hp_hide_other_disks cannot be longer
	than 3,000 bytes" error messsages may be generated.

	PHCO_22958:
	SR:8606172677 DTS:JAGad41937
	  On 11.11 systems with hyperfabric and/or atm cards,
	the list of lans available for selection is inconsistent.
	SR:8606172165 DTS:JAGad41427
	  Unable to change ip-address using set_parms.
	SR:8606187199 DTS:JAGad56407
	  When using "set_parms timezone" it is not possible to
	select the "Middle European daylight saving time" option.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_29675:
	SR:8606187344 DTS:JAGad56551
	The H/W Path of each device is hidden from install
	is saved in _hp_hide_other_disks. This list may be
	longer than the 3,000 byte awk string editing buffer.

	PHCO_22958:
	SR:8606172677 DTS:JAGad41937
	Starting with 11.11 the set_parms command gives the user the
	choice of which lan card to configure. To create the list of
	lan interfaces to select from, set_parms uses both the
	ioscan and lanscan. There are some devices that show up in
	ioscan -kFC lan that are not lan cards (fclan) and cards
	that are lan's that do not show up in lanscan (atm).
	So the lan list indexing fails.
	SR:8606172165 DTS:JAGad41427
	 When "set_parms ip_address" command is issued, the GUI
	window pops up asking for the new IP address. When the new
	IP address is entered, the command hangs and finally times
	out.
	SR:8606187199 DTS:JAGad56407
	When using "set_parms timezone" it is not possible to
	set the "Middle European daylight saving time" option.

Enhancement:
	No
