Hotfix hf9424

This optional hotfix resolves an issue with CA AppLogic 3.8.6 appliances not properly reporting counters for some volumes to MON appliances. This hotfix cannot be used with other versions of CA AppLogic®.

The hotfix modifies files on the boot volume of appliances residing in the system catalog. The hotfix takes effect immediately upon successful installation so no grid reboot is required. However, applications that are running and using appliances from the system catalog do need to be restarted.

hf9424 also installs a patch file named hf9424.patch in the download directory on the grid controller. You can use the patch to update singleton appliances manually as needed. Perform the following steps to apply the patch:

1. Log into the running singleton appliance:

   comp login <component-name>
   

2. Retrieve the IP address by which the grid controller can be accessed from the appliance:

   cat /tmp/acs-dhclient-options | grep new_dhcp_server_identifier | awk -F"=" '{print $2}'
   

3. Retrieve the patch file from the download directory on the controller:

   wget http://<ipaddress>:8080/download/hf9424.patch
   

   Note: <ipaddress> is the IP address of the grid controller retrieved in step 2.

4. Apply the patch:

   patch -p0 < hf9424.patch
   

5. Restart the appliance for the changes to take effect.
