[6.3] O2 Recommended Patches

[6.3] O2 Recommended Patch Set
(Last Updated: January 1, 1998)
This is for both R5K and R10K O2 systems. It applies to the second 6.3 release (6.3 Including R10000 O2). Customers running the first 6.3 release must upgrade to the second release. Some patches for the first 6.3 release may apply to the second, but in general this isn't true.

Caveats:

If patch 1778 was installed prior to installing this patch, do "versions remove patchSG0001778" to remove extra inst history after installing this set. (Patch 2018 does not completely remove the history, though it will replace the patch correctly).
If Patch 2209 is installed on diskless share trees, the MAKEDEV command must be executed after the patch is installed, on each diskless client before it is rebooted, to avoid a client panic:

cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV
An existing problem with the handling of stereo video timing tables can cause the X server to hang if a stereo timing has been selected and made permanent with Xscreen or setmon, and the X server is restarted. Even though the X server cannot start up, its process stays stuck in memory and cannot be killed. It is necessary to reboot the system in order to recover; after reboot, Xscreen or setmon should be used to make a non-stereo timing permanent. Patch 2083 in this set added an additional stereo timing table. To avoid this problem, it is suggested that stereo timings not be made permanent.
After installing patch 2232 the tape icon may not appear after the first system reboot. The icon will appear on the second reboot and on all subsequent reboots.
Patch 2359 may result in the following console and SYSLOG messages being generated:
unix: MVP: Audio/Video Interface(AV1) 4 out of 6 chips didn't respond.
unix: MVP: Audio/Video Interface(AV1) 2 out of 6 chips didn't respond.
These are normal messages; they do not indicate a problem.
Boot up may take longer than normal (4 to 6 mins) on some R10k systems with patch 2489.
If you are using Adobe Premiere and wish to use DiaQuest DQ-TimeCoder to do deck control, you must uninstall patch 1993 from your system. Patch 1993 is incompatibile with Adobe Premiere/Diaquest DQ-TimeCoder, and deck control will not work if patch 1993 is installed on your system.
