Sun Cluster 3.0 12/01 Release Notes

BugId 4504311

Problem Summary: When a Sun Cluster configuration is upgraded to Solaris 8 10/01 software (required for Sun Cluster 3.0 12/01 upgrade), the Apache start and stop scripts are restored. If an Apache data service is already present on the cluster and configured in its default configuration (the /etc/apache/httpd.conf file exists and the /etc/rc3.d/S50apache file does not exist), Apache starts on its own. This prevents the Apache data service from starting because Apache is already running.

Workaround: Do the following for each node.

  1. Before you shut down a node to upgrade it, determine whether the following links already exist, and if so, whether the file names contain an uppercase K or S.


    /etc/rc0.d/K16apache
    /etc/rc1.d/K16apache
    /etc/rc2.d/K16apache
    /etc/rc3.d/S50apache
    /etc/rcS.d/K16apache

    If these links already exist and contain an uppercase K or S in the file name, no further action is necessary. Otherwise, perform the action in the next step after you upgrade the node to Solaris 8 10/01 software.

  2. After the node is upgraded to Solaris 8 10/01 software, but before you reboot the node, move aside the restored Apache links by renaming the files with a lowercase k or s.
