Error after installing the patch

[panks]

Hi,
I have installed patch PHSS_35979 and then the system got rebooted. Now I am not able to open any files it is giving me the below error.
/usr/lib/hpux32/dld.so: Unable to find library 'libelf.so.1'.

Is there any problem with this patch. How can I revert the back to original state.

Thanks

Hi,

If you are able to open the file then check
#/var/adm/sw/swinstall.log

Library file libelf.so.1 was missing, so i copied from some other server. Now I am able to open the file, but not able to run the SAM. I think this all caused due to the patch PHSS_35979.

Now the error I am getting is:

root@abcs:/> sam
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Invalid shared library file: /usr/lib/libdld.2
/usr/lib/dld.sl: No such file or directory
[HP ARIES32]: Core file for 32 bit PA-RISC application

The patch database shows that PHSS_35979 also requires PHSS_37552. Did you load that patch as well? Was it already loaded? If not, that may be part of your problem.

Also, PHSS_35979 has a WARNING. It is recommended that PHSS_37947 be used instead. Note that PHSS_37947 also depends on PHSS_37552.

Hi Panks,

follow the below procedure while installing patches,
a) Take o/p of the swlist -R in your home directory
b) Take a backup of the current kernel in /stand
1) mkdir /stand/OLDCONF;cd /stand
2) cp -pR dlkm* /stand/OLDCONF
3) cp -pR bulid /stand/OLDCONF
4) cp -pR vmunix /stand/OLDCONF
5) cp -pr system and system.d to /stand/OLDCONF
6) Take ignite backup of the system
======================================================
also while installing the patches first it will do the analysis .
check the analysis very carefully is there any dependcy of patches. what is the
importance of that paches from system point of view.

Hope that will help u in future

No, I didn't found anything in swinstall log.
But I install PHSS_37947 and now the problem is resolved, and regarding that dependent patch, yes I already installed that.

Thanks for your support.
