AFFECTED SYSTEMS: PowerMAX OS 4.3P7
PROGRAM NAME: fsck
RELEASE LEVEL: PowerMAX OS 4.3 Patch Set 7 (4.3P7).
EXPLANATION:
The system may panic during boot after installation of base-007 from Patch Set 7 if there are UFS file systems listed in /etc/vfstab and the fsckpass field for those file systems does not contain unique numbers for partitions on the same disk.RESOLUTION:
A change to the gd/Driver.o is forthcoming but until that time a workaround to overcome the panic would be to ensure that each partition of a disk that is a UFS file system has a unique fsckpass number in /etc/vfstab.This has been corrected in PowerMAX OS 4.3P9 and 5.1SR2.
