Installation of PHNE_25626

[Konrath]

I got a problem when I wanted to install PHNE_25626 on one of my 11.00 systems. The error occurred after the new kernel was loaded:
Loading the kernel...
ld: Unsatisfied symbol "mi_timer_alloc" in file /usr/conf/lib/librpc.a[rpcmod.o]
ld: Unsatisfied symbol "mi_timer_free" in file /usr/conf/lib/librpc.a[rpcmod.o]
ld: Unsatisfied symbol "mi_timer" in file /usr/conf/lib/librpc.a[rpcmod.o]
ld: Unsatisfied symbol "mi_timer_valid" in file /usr/conf/lib/librpc.a[rpcmod.o]
4 errors.
*** Error exit code 1


Can anybody help me?

If yes: Have you changed any install option like reinstall=true ?

If yes you will probably have a problem with PHKL_18543 which never may be reinstalled as this patch is dependency for almost all patches.

Generally, it happened when
1. patch shares filesets with many superseding patches.
2. install with the reinstall options

the resolution is to reinstall the patches whose filesets were overlayed.

Some thoughts of mine:
1. make backup first
2. install those dependencies patches first, then reinstall this patches. You have got the list from the above post, you also can use swlist
swlist -l fileset -a prerequistie PHNE_\* |grep 25626
3. you can identify superseded patches with
swlist -l patch \*\.*,c=patch |grep superseded
4. when reinstall, make both reinstall options, deselect the "autoselect dependencies when marking software" to prevent other patches from being installed.
