This section describes the required patches for HP DCE/9000 Enhanced
DFS Version 3.0 on HP-UX 11.0.
The following fixes are included in this version of the product:
• In the previous release, it was reported that under some circumstances,
issuing an fts release command would cause a core dump. The problem was
found not to be with the DFS software.
• Corrected a performance problem introduced by a previous defect fix.
• Improved the output of the failage field in FTS commands to be more useful and
readable.
• Corrected a memory leak in DFS that eventually used up all user memory,
causing the system to freeze.
• Updated the configuration code so that using the script form of the configuration
no longer fails with an error 22.
• Improved the dce_login command so that users can now access DFS files with a
network identity. A temporary different version of the dce_login command that
was provided for obtaining credentials is no longer needed.
• Corrected a problem that occurred when a user changed the current working
directory into a backup fileset, the directory later would be seen as invalid.
• Corrected a problem with the FTS addsite command, which would try to create
a second read/write replica.
• Improved the selection of DFS servers, when rank is the same. This situation no
longer results in the same server being picked, which had an adverse affect on
load balancing.
