2521.0. "v32de1 link broken for /usr/sbin/cron" by AOSG::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Fri Aug 30 1996 15:41

Subj: v32de1 link broken for /usr/sbin/cron
How do we determine whether this should be backed out to fix the link?
It should have been submitted to v32c, then fallen through.
The srequest was done by Dave Smith (from NJ) and bsubmitted before
useg_submit approval. The bsubmit confusion was probably due to
an approval from Kamrul Islam (cmds_submit) that stated:
cmds_submit approves v32de1supportos-59-dsmith
please wait 24 hrs before submitting

Dave -
You'll need to do an srequest -update to incorporate the changes needed.
NOTE: Srequest v32de1supportos-59-dsmith was still in the review process, but
you did the bsubmit yesterday. You need to wait for approval from the
useg release engineering reviewers BEFORE you do a bsubmit.
Please forward a draft of your changes to the documentation reviewer, Tom
Wolklin (wolklin@zk3.dec.com), to get his approval before you do the actual
update.
1. Rework the announcement summary and problem description.
- The announcement summary should include the line about this
being a problem on multi-processor machines.
- Include what effects the user would see when the problem occurs.
(error message, hang, slow response, etc.)
- remove "CLD X-CHECK" from the PROBLEM line.
example (may not be technically correct):
Announcement Summary
Multi-processor systems may hang when the "at" command is executed.
PROBLEM: ( QAR 47149, UVO104578CBR ) (Patch ID: <Ignore this> )
Multi-processor systems may hang when the "at" command is executed.
This occurs when the number of jobs started by the 'at' command
in addition to other jobs running on the system exceed the
queue limit. This patch fixes that problem.
2. Complete section 2a (support pools that will have this fix)
Does this fix need to be in any pools other than v32de1supportos?
If it will be inherited by v32de2, v32f, or v32g, mark an "f"
in the brackets next to those pools. Is it applicable to any
previous pools or v40?

1c) Release Note Information
======================================================================
REQUIRED PATCHES (other patches that are MANDATORY to install WITH this patch):
none
FILES TO BE DISTRIBUTED:
/usr/sbin/cron RCS:
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
- Boot to single user
- Move the following file:
# mv /usr/sbin/cron /usr/sbin/cron.orig
- Copy the following file from /patches:
# cp -p /patches/usr_sbin/cron /usr/sbin/cron
- Set permissions, owner and group accordingly:
# chmod 755 /usr/sbin/cron
# chown bin:bin /usr/sbin/cron
- Reboot to multi-user
PROBLEM: ( QAR 47149, CLD X-CHECK UVO104578CBR ) (Patch ID: <Ignore this> )
'at' command causes extra batch jobs to be executed, exceeding
the queue limit. This happens on multi-processor machines.
1d) Internal description
Whenever cron reschedules a job, it creates a new event structure
and reassignes values to all fields. While assigning a value to
the etype field, it was using a global variable "JOBTYPE" which is
also used at many other places, but cron was assuming it to be a
reliable value. So, jobs were being placed on the wrong queue.
With this fix, the proper job type is assigned to the etype field
of the job when it is rescheduled.

Subj: Re: v32de1 link broken for /usr/sbin/cron
The 'findpool -f ./usr/sbin/cron/cron.c' command says this fix would need
to be bsubmit'ed to the following pools
v20supportos ./usr/sbin/cron/cron.c
v30supportos ./usr/sbin/cron/cron.c
v32supportos ./usr/sbin/cron/cron.c
v32csupportos ./usr/sbin/cron/cron.c
v32de1supportos ./usr/sbin/cron/cron.c
v40supportos ./usr/sbin/cron/cron.c
and should flow through to all others.
