PROBLEM:  The following problems may be experienced when using tape
devices
          with SCO UnixWare 2.1.3:



          1. Reading a file mark does not position the tape after the
file
             mark.



          2. Tape commands do not time out even on a controller that
supports
             timeouts.



          3. It is possible for the tape driver to get into a state
where it
             cannot be opened.



          4. The system PANICs while reading DAT tapes in variable block
mode.



          5. With ptf4042a installed and Using dd or cpio, if tape is
opened
             in non-rewind mode, a block of data is read and tape is
closed,
             skipping to the EOT side of the next filemark.



          6. With some HBA Drivers like Mylex or Qlogic is trying
allocate
             contiguous 16-64MB of memory, it could result a system hang
or
             panic as the st01 driver cannot handle such a big DMA list.
             with Qlogic qlc1020 driver, you can notice a message like



            PANIC: qlc1020: Job too big for DMA list

PROBLEM:  While installing a dependent node to add to a NonStop Cluster (NSC),
          the SCOadmin License Manager is called and requires the addition of
          both a UnixWare 7 operating system license and an NSC Server bump
          for this node (only for dependent nodes).



          Both licenses are accepted but on addition of the NSC Server
          license, the license manager reports that the following license
          has been successfully added:



             0 additional CPUs



          instead of recognizing the license as "NonStop Clusters 3-6 node
          bump" (for example).

PROBLEM:  I have activated auditing on my UnixWare 7.1.1 system. When I run
          the auditrpt(1M) command to examine the logs, I get the error:



                Command Line Entered: auditrpt



                DATE: 0724, LOG NUMBER: 001, AUDIT VERSION: 4.0



                MACHINE ID: UnixWare <machine name> 5 7.1.1 Pentium Pro
                UX:auditrpt: WARNING: machines for log file "/var/audit/
                0724001"
                (UnixWare <machine name>  5 7.1.1 Pentium Pro) and map file
                (UnixWare <machine name> 5 7.1.1 i386) do not match

PROBLEM:  The VisionFS SMB client (clientadmin) fails to mount the locally
          exported NFS filesystem in a NonStop Cluster environment, which
          is required for SMB client services to work properly. Errors similar
          to those below will be seen after "visionfs clientadmin --setup"
          is run and the setup script attempts to start the SMB client:

PROBLEM:  I'm trying to back up large files under UnixWare 7 Release 7.1.1.
          What is the largest file or volume size that I can back up?

PROBLEM:  On the first reboot during the installation process of UnixWare 7
          Release 7.0.1 or 7.1.0, the system panics with:



            Kernel mode address fault on user address 0x00000000 (or 0xffffffff



          Depending on the "mega" driver version you are using, the above
          message may be preceded by:



            MegaRaid: cm_read_devconfig failed for board ID



          This message does not appear to complete. Powering down and removing
          secondary RAID controllers allows the installation to complete
          normally.
