SEVERE: Error for batch element #2: DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-569,
SQLSTATE=56092, SQLERRMC=TLMSRV, DRIVER=3.62.56
The problem occurs when there is a user and a group with the same name. In the case of the GRANT statement, DB2 is not able to determine whether the user or the group is referred to in the clause. When using DCE security, the USER, GROUP or ROLE keyword is always required. 		サーバー Interim fix 11

IV42983 INCONSISTENT DATA IN TAD4D REPORTS For some duplicate software instances, the date when the software was installed is later than the date when it was uninstalled or no longer discovered by the agent. Such invalid records cause discrepancies between the software that is displayed on the Manage Software Inventory panel and the software that is displayed on the Agent Details and Software Components panels. サーバー Interim fix 11
IV43120 MINIMUM DB2 AUTHORITY FOR TLMSRV USER ID The purpose of the tlmsrv user is to authorize JDBC connection with DB2.

IV37007 HW SCAN FAILS TO RETRIEVE INFORMATION ABOUT LDOMS Hardware scans are not able to report information about LDOMs. It is caused by the fact that Solaris API reports an LDOM as present, while it is not. エージェント Interim fix 8
IV37286 INCONSISTENT HW SERIAL ON SOLARIS LDOMS The serial number that is returned by the ComponentID group on Solaris might be inconsistent across LDOMs. It is expected to be the same on all LDOMs, however, it might differ as sysinfo sometimes returns a different serial number. To make the serial number consistent on LDOMs, a value that is returned by the v12n_chassis_serialno parameter of libv12n.so should be used. エージェント Interim fix 8
IV33537 SYSTEMS WITHOUT AGENTS LIST INCORRECT Agents are installed on devices that have NIC cards with at least two IP addresses.

20189 PVU matching algorithm for sockets The enhanced algorithm matches all configurations that have the number of sockets equal to or lower than the number of sockets that is defined in the PVU table. If an exact match is not possible, the smallest PVU row that has a greater number of sockets than the number of discovered sockets is matched to limit the risk of overcharging when multiple records are found. For example: three sockets are discovered. Their models, types, and vendors are properly matched in the PVU table, but there is no match for the number of sockets. However, the following three entries are found in the PVU table.
  1. PVU entry 2S, 70 PVU
  2. PVU entry 4S, 100 PVU
  3. PVU entry 8S, 120 PVU
The algorithm looks for the first entry with the number of sockets greater then the number of discovered sockets. Thus, it selects the second row with four sockets and 100 PVUs.

The algorithm is also supported on VM managers as it gathers all necessary data.

18493 AIX agent installer improvement To fulfil compatibility requirements and AIX guidelines for software installation, changes were made to AIX agent native installer that significantly changed the way that the agent is installed.
  • New packages are by default installed in the /opt/itlm and /var/itlm directories. It is no longer possible to install an agent in a custom location. Environmental variable ILMT_INSTALL_PATH is no longer supported.
  • To move an agent to a custom location, AIX relocation mechanism that is based on User Specified Installation Location (USIL) can be used. To install an agent in a location other than the default one, -R option must be added to the installp command. For example, to install an agent in /custom_location:
    1. Create the custom_location directory: 
      mkdir /custom_location
    2. Make the directory your User Specified Installation Location (USIL): 
      mkusil -R /custom_location
    3. Install the agent in this location: 
      installp -R /custom_location -acgXd full_path_to_the_installation_package_dir
      ILMT-TAD4D-agent-7.5-aix-ppc ILMT-TAD4D-agent
      The agent are installed in /custom_location/opt/itlm and /custom_location/var/itlm folders.

Common Inventory Technology

License Metric Tool エージェントには Common Inventory Technology バージョン 2.7.0.2031 が含まれています。Common Inventory Technology スキャナーの現在の変更ログについて詳しくは、https://www-304.ibm.com/support/entdocview.wss?uid=swg21612705 にアクセスしてください。

暫定修正の前提条件と以前のバージョンとの互換性

暫定修正をインストールする前に、License Metric Tool に対してフィックスパック 7.5-TIV-ILMT-FP0001 がインストールされていることを確認してください。フィックスパックのインストール手順については、製品の資料を参照してください。

暫定修正のインストール

パッチ・インストーラーを使用してフィックスをインストールする方法については、http://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21600003 にアクセスしてください。
重要:

フィックスをインストールするには、License Metric Tool がインストールされているコンピューターに、Administrator (Windows の場合) または root (UNIX の場合) としてログインする必要があります。

ファイル・アーカイバーによっては、ファイル・パスが長すぎると、暫定修正のインストーラーが適切に解凍できない場合があります。ファイルの解凍には、長いファイル・パスに対応する専用のアプリケーションを使用してください。

エージェントを特定の暫定修正で更新する場合は、License Metric Tool サーバーも同じバージョンの暫定修正で更新されていることを確認してください。エージェントをサーバーに接続する場合、エージェントのバージョンは、そのサーバーのバージョンと同じかそれより下である必要があります。エージェントのバージョンは、サーバーのバージョンより上であってはなりません。
