DETAILS OF INCIDENTS FIXED BY THE PATCH
---------------------------------------
This patch fixes the following Symantec incidents:

Patch ID: 149791-01

* 3093828 (Tracking ID: 3125918)

SYMPTOM:
AMF driver panics the node when vxconfigd is unresponsive.

DESCRIPTION:
The libusnp_vxnotify.so library, used for disk group notifications, goes into
an infinite loop when vxconfigd daemon is unresponsive.  This causes AMF to
enter an inconsistent state; as a result, the AMF driver panics the node.

RESOLUTION:
Symantec has modified the AMF driver and libusnp_vxnotify.so
library to address this issue.
