4. _B_u_g__F_i_x_e_s
Given the size and complexity of the PCP product, a
significant number of bugs were fixed in the PCP 1.3
release, and enumeration of them is hardly informative.
Patch 1578 was released for PCP 1.2. All functionality
contained within this patch was included in PCP 1.3.
Relative to PCP 1.2, the following incidents have been
resolved in PCP 1.3.
456928 pmview exits with shell error
Memory allocation error sometimes caused shell
commands run from ppppmmmmvvvviiiieeeewwww(1) to fail.
460783 Namespace failed to build during installation
An uncommon scenario for initial FLEXlm license
installation and IRIX 5.3 has been addressed.
461245 pmie core dumps (probably silly pmie.config)
In fact the problem related to a ppppmmmmiiiieeee(1) error when
fetching a metric that is initially unavailable, but
subsequently becomes available and has a non-
singular instance domain.
461534 pmlogsummary sometimes dumps core with changing
instances
Resolved a memory allocation error in
ppppmmmmllllooooggggssssuuuummmmmmmmaaaarrrryyyy(1) that was related to logging a metric
with an underlying instance domain that is subject
to dynamic changes.
461537 additional pmlogsummary features
Added ----SSSS and ----TTTT options to restrict reporting to log
entries within a time window.
466104 pmchart infinite loops on selecting
"pmcd.control.register"
Very long help text exposed a problem with the
Metric Information dialog.
466282 pmlogmerge -S does not get the start time correct
When ppppmmmmllllooooggggmmmmeeeerrrrggggeeee(1) is used to extract a temporal
slice from a PCP archive, the new output archive now
has a correct label record to indicate the new
starting time.
467197 pmcd collector license failure on O2000
A problem with the FLEXlm libraries used to create
the PCP 1.2.1 and PCPORIGIN 1.0 images has been
- 2 -
corrected.
467249 cron.pmsnap may be confused by an empty PCP archive
folio
The integrity checking in ccccrrrroooonnnn....ppppmmmmssssnnnnaaaapppp(1) has been
reworked to catch a number of transient and
configuration error conditions.
467412 cisco PMDA does not work well with Cisco user-level
passwords
Major changes have been made to the Cisco PMDA to
accommodate this problem and improve the robustness
of the installation procedure for a wider range of
Cisco router models and interfaces.
469265 pmlogsummary memory leak
A problem that become evident when processing very
large PCP archives has been fixed.
469591 GUI tools 'Product Information' window uses hard-
coded PCP version
The ``Product Information'' window now provides
correct information for ppppmmmmvvvviiiieeeewwww(1), ppppmmmmttttiiiimmmmeeee(1) and
ppppmmmmrrrruuuulllleeeessss(1).
474422 pmchart botched legend font height calculation
An obscure problem in creating a ppppmmmmcccchhhhaaaarrrrtttt(1) chart
could sometimes cause all subsequent chart creations
to fail in a way that caused the axes and plot data
to be ``invisible''.
