Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/11.X/PHNE_16580

Symptoms:
	PHNE_16580:
	1. Running some specific commands over a port belonging to
	   a link aggregate followed by a power off on the switch
	   causes system panic.
	2. If a link aggregate is configured with an IP address and
	   all the physical ports are removed from it and then added
	   back, clients may be unable to communicate over the link
	   aggregate.
	3. If a cable is disconnected from a port belonging to a
	   link aggregate and then re-connected, the port does not
	   get added back to the same link aggregate.
	4. Glance, the performance monitoring tool, does not return
	   statistics for link aggregates.
	5. Deleting a port using "lanadmin -X -d" from an
	   automatically formed link aggregate incorrectly deletes
	   a different port.

Defect Description:
	PHNE_16580:

	1. A kernel lock held during command execution was not
	   released appropriately upon return. A subsequent attempt
	   to hold the same lock caused system panic.
	2. Specific code for passing new MAC address to the upper
	   layer was not implemented appropriately.
	3. A state variable was not cleared when cable disconnect
	   event occurred.
	4. A DLPI primitive "DL_HP_GET_MIB_STATS" was not supported.
	5. Specific code for deleting a port from an automatically
	   formed link aggregate incorrectly deleted the first port
	   from the link aggregate.
