Patch:  3.6.2-TMF-0001

Component: Tivoli Framework 3.6.2

General Description:

    This patch contains several fixes for APARs related to the endpoint
    manager, gateways, and winstlcf.  This patch does not supersede
    any other patches and does not require that any other patches be
    installed prior to the installation of this patch.

Problems Fixed:

  New Fixes in 3.6.2-TMF-0001:

    Internal CMVC defect 83054
    Symptoms: Add changes to endpoint installation scripts to support
    RedHat Linux 6.0.

    APAR IY00829
    Symptoms: The select_gateway_policy is called with null arguments
    when migration is completed by a migratory login or migratory upcall.
    The fix is two-fold.  In the case of a migratory login, the login
    information is assembled before the select_gateway_policy is called.
    The interface list is still augmented after the select_gateway_policy
    is called.  In the case of the migratory upcall, the endpoints
    address is included for the endpoint manager in the endpoint_login
    call.  Note that the version in the select_gateway_policy is still
    not valid when migration is completed by login.  A comment is added
    to the select_gateway_policy default script to indicate this. 

    APAR IY01112
    Symptoms: Endpoint manager has memory leaks causing it to grow over
    100 mb in size when running for an extended period.

    APAR IY04055
    Symptoms: Occasionally, the endpoint creation process will hang and
    tie up threads on the TMR and gateway.

    Internal CMVC defect 85513
    Symptoms: Endpoint manager methods with the "any" Access Control
    List(ACL) cannot be called by everybody.  This breaks several Tivoli
    Manager products which initiate actions from an upcall and need to
    query the endpoint manager for information about an endpoint. 

    Internal CMVC defect 85662
    Symptoms: The endpoint manager is not returning any data from
    get_endpoints method calls.  In particular, this means that the
    endpoint manager cannot contact an endpoint in an interconnected
    TMR.

    Solaris, AIX 4, HPUX 10, SunOS 4, Windows NT 3.5.1 and 4.0

Patch Contents:

    - This README file
    - An image report for this patch
    - A cdrom image for this patch 

Applying the Patch:

    1)  Extract the patch:

        On a Unix system:
        
        Extract the contents into a scratch directory. For the purpose
        of this release note, assume that the symbol $PATCH points to
        this directory.

        # cd $PATCH
        # tar xvf 3.6.2-TMF-0001.tar

        On a Windows NT system:

        Extract the contents into a scratch directory. For the purpose
        of this release note, assume that the symbol %PATCH% points to
        this directory. 

        > %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\Tivoli\setup_env
        > X:              
          ^-- 'X' is drive letter where %PATCH% is found
        > cd %PATCH%
        > tar xvf 3.6.2-TMF-0001.tar

        NOTE:  If you are extracting the tar image on a Windows NT
        system, you will find an executable for tar in the TME
        installation on Windows NT under bin/w32-ix86/tools/tar.exe.


    2)  If this patch is to be installed on a release level of 3.6 or
        greater, follow these instructions for using Software
        Installation Service (SIS).  If not, skip to step 3 below.

        NOTE: SIS can install Tivoli products on any hardware
              platform supported by Tivoli, but there are some
