RRIP patch

H.Merijn Brand (procura — Thu, 04 Apr 2002 11:18:05 GMT

Bill Hassell referred in the Netherlands to a patch that would be available for 11i that would make PFS internal knowledge to the mount command, so the pfs daemons would become obsolete. What wonderfull thought (AIX supports this for a long time already).

He also said that a 11.00 patch would follow shortly.

I cannot find any patch regarding this subject for neither 11i nor 11.00. Tried finding on RRIP and on PFS.

Does anybody can shed some light on this?

Procura,

Search for Rock Ridge in the patch part of the ITRC and you will find them as well.

Thanks, but 11.00 still not available :((

Are you using the `old' search engine or the magnificent new beta at
http://support2.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/search.do?pageContextName=hpux:::

If not (yet), try it. You'll like it!

Hi:

Although I have not yet done so, it is my understanding that you can obtain an advance copy of this 11i patch ported to 11.0 by emailing your request to:

spp@cup.hp.com

Regards!

Hi Brand,

Rock Ridge extensions for 11.00 will be released by
the end of May. So you can check for patches on 11.00
at that time.

Thread closed.

Well, it's the end of May alright, but still no 11.00 version of that patch.

Hi,
Ok, I know, I should think before I act, but I was so pleased with the mailaddress provided (spp@cup.hp.com) that I just send them a (very polite) mail requesting the (beta) patches ... without knowing who these people are.

Boy, I won't make that mistake again. Let's just say I got a "less than polite" reply saying that ITRC might be for everybody but they only catered for "the high and mighty".

Ah well, I'll just have to wait, won't I :-)
Regards,
Tom

Greetings...

spp@cup.hp.com is the technical support email address for the DSPP (Developer Solution Provider Program) and we provide services to HP software partners to help them do development and porting on HP platforms. We occasionally receive requests from non-members which we do try to answer on a best effort basis. At the same time, we describe our program and encourage those requestors to sign up if they are software vendors.

I apologize for any negative impression caused by my response to Tom's request to spp@cup.hp.com.

Here is the latest information regarding Rockridge support on HP-UX 11.0:

11.00: PHKL_26448 (kernel)
PHCO_26449 (command)
PHKL_26450 (header for compile)
- All these patches are cut and tested, but waiting for final management review. The patches are expected to be released very soon.
