Hewlett-Packard is pleased to announce
the latest release of HP-UX Support Plus. These tested bundles
include patches that fix HP-UX defects, enable new hardware, and provide
diagnostic tools.
Support Plus is available to customers by request only. Please use the following information to decide
whether this release is right for you.
Hewlett-Packard strongly
recommends that you update your OnlineDiag product version to
September 2002 release because it includes the following enhancements:
1. The solution
for an error logging issue with the HP-UX 11.0 and 11i, March 2002 and June
2002
versions of OnlineDiag EMS Hardware Monitors. If an update to the new September 2002 version
of OnlineDiag
is not possible - this is the HP recommendation as additional functionality
is included in this release, then the
same solution is available by applying the appropriate patch to your existing
March or June 2002 version of OnlineDiag.
Additional information and patch numbers can be found at:
2.
The
solution for a disk interruption issue with the hp StorageWorks disk system
products using
OnlineDiag product on HP-UX with a version earlier than September 2002.
HP-UX Support Plus will be released
as two CDs, one for HP-UX 11.0 and one for HP-UX 11i.
