Patch Name: PHKL_20989 Patch Description: s700_800 11.00 Cumulative dump device, dump size patch Creation Date: 00/02/02 Post Date: 00/03/19 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 11.00 s800: 11.00 Products: N/A Filesets: OS-Core.CORE2-KRN,fr=B.11.00,fa=HP-UX_B.11.00_32,v=HP OS-Core.CORE2-KRN,fr=B.11.00,fa=HP-UX_B.11.00_64,v=HP Automatic Reboot?: Yes Status: General Release Critical: No Category Tags: defect_repair general_release Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/11.X/PHKL_20989 Symptoms: PHKL_20989: ( SR: 8606109719 DTS: JAGab82419 ) The customer is unable to interact with the crash dump when using a USB keyboard. The default dump type is a selective or partial dump. The customer must hit a key on the keyboard to select another option. On systems with USB keyboards the keyboard has been disable and the customer is unable to select another option. PHKL_20172: ( SR: 8606107634 DTS: JAGab15364 ) On certain systems, a message will be printed to the console, indicating that an error may have occurred while resetting dump devices. Despite this, the dump completes sucessfully. Defect Description: PHKL_20989: ( SR: 8606109719 DTS: JAGab82419 ) A system dump can be initiated either by pressing the Transfer Of Control (TOC) button or by a system panic. Two different firmware requests have been mapped to the same firmware entry point and that entry point is used during a dump. On some workstations (ie. C3000, J5000) the firmware will disable the USB keyboard when the firmware request is made. Resolution: The HP-UX kernel will avoid a particular firmware call during a dump when running on particular systems with USB keyboards. PHKL_20172: ( SR: 8606107634 DTS: JAGab15364 ) A return code from a PDC call was incorrectly interpreted. This caused some systems to believe there may have been a problem while resetting dump devices. Resolution: Correct the interpretation of the return code to indicate failure only when there is an actual failure.
