---------------------------------------
This patch fixes the following incidents:

Patch ID: VRTSllt-6.0.500.300

* 3953687 (Tracking ID: 3953686)

SYMPTOM:
The sfha-sles11sp4_x86_64-Patch-6.0.5.100 patch for SFHA 6.0.5 does not 
support SLES11SP1

DESCRIPTION:
SFHA release 6.0.5 supports SLES11 SP1, SP2, SP3. The sfha-
sles11sp4_x86_64-Patch-6.0.5.100 patch was delivered to support SLES11 SP4.
However, this patch did not include the support for SLES11SP1.

RESOLUTION:
Support for SLES11 SP1, SP2, SP3, and SP4 is added in the new patch
sfha-sles11sp4_x86_64-Patch-6.0.5.600.

* 3794258 (Tracking ID: 3794203)

SYMPTOM:
Veritas Cluster Server (VCS) does not support SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 
Service Pack 4 (SLES 11 SP4).

DESCRIPTION:
VCS did not support SLES versions released after SLES 11 SP3.

RESOLUTION:
VCS support for SLES 11 SP4 is now introduced.

Patch ID: VRTSdbac-6.0.500.200

* 3953694 (Tracking ID: 3953686)

SYMPTOM:
The sfha-sles11sp4_x86_64-Patch-6.0.5.100 patch for SFHA 6.0.5 does not 
support SLES11SP1

DESCRIPTION:
SFHA release 6.0.5 supports SLES11 SP1, SP2, SP3. The sfha-
sles11sp4_x86_64-Patch-6.0.5.100 patch was delivered to support SLES11 SP4.
However, this patch did not include the support for SLES11SP1.

RESOLUTION:
Support for SLES11 SP1, SP2, SP3, and SP4 is added in the new patch
sfha-sles11sp4_x86_64-Patch-6.0.5.600.

* 3090366 (Tracking ID: 3090447)

SYMPTOM:
When the default shell of the Oracle user is set to C shell (csh), the 
monitor entry point of the CRSResource agent reports the following errors:

ORACLE_HOME=: Command not found.
ORACLE_SID=: Command not found.
export: Command not found.
Error 6 initializing SQL*Plus
SP2-0667: Message file sp1.msb not found
SP2-0750: You may need to set ORACLE_HOME to your Oracle software directory

DESCRIPTION:
The CRSResource agent assumes that the default shell of the user 
specified in the Owner attribute is \"sh\" and therefore uses the export command 
of the sh environment, when necessary. If the default shell for the user is 
csh, the export command fails as the corresponding native command in csh 
is \"setenv\". This causes resources of type CRSResource to fault.

RESOLUTION:
The code is now modified to first detect the current 
default shell of the user specified in the Owner attribute. If the current 
default shell is csh, the agent uses the setenv command. Otherwise, the agent 
uses the export command.
