Hi Don;<br><br>What you've written sounds good. Here's the relevant extracts from my SR -<br><br>explorer data shows system has patch 146232-13, which obsoletes patch 143645-16. There is a known issue <br>that was introduced in patch 143645-03, which caused the CHAP authentication not to work.<br>
<br>The issue you are seeing with CHAP Authentication is a known issue that was introduced in patch 143645-03. This patch<br>was obsoleted by 146232-13 (i.e. the issue introduced in 143645-03 is included in this patch). The bugs that have been <br>
filed for is this are 7031995 and 7127565. Engineering is working on a fix, and will provide you with an IDR or patch as<br>soon as it is available. In the meantime, please keep CHAP authentication disabled.<br><br>All the best,<br>

Thanks Drew!<br>
<br>
So, just to confirm; this issue is introduced in 143645-03?<br>
Should that be 143645-13 by any chance?<br>
Is so, then I think the affected revisions are 143645 revs 13, 14,
15, 16 & 146232 revs 08, 09, 12, 13.<br>
<br>
I'll get a README note added to these patches to serve as a heads-up
to customers.<br>
<br>
Does the following sound about right:<br>
<pre> Please do not apply this patch to systems running iSCSI that use Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol (CHAP), as CHAP is not compatible with this patch revision.</pre>
<pre> The fix for the underlying problem (CR 7031995) is delivered in patch 146232-14.
Please install patch 146232-14 in the place of this one on systems running iSCSI
that are using CHAP.
</pre>
<br>
I've followed up on patch 146232-14 and it is due to be released
later today, so should hit MOS overnight.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>

Been lurking here for a while, but have been having great success
with pca (thanks Martin). Have handled 1000+ systems in under 2
months w/ lots of different pca configs (based on security
requirements).<br>
<br>
After everything we saw with 144500 / 501-19, I thought I'd share
another heads up for everyone.<br>
<br>
First off, my problems with the above were solved with another
patch from Oracle.<br>
<br>
The next patch only impacts about a dozen machines in this
environment, but if you're running iSCSI with CHAP, take note.<br>
<br>
Bug to the above was introduced in 143645-03 (CHAP stops working).<br>
Bug is perpetuated by 146232-13 which obsoleted 143645-16<br>
<br>
Bugs on file at Oracle: 7031995 and 7127565<br>
<br>
Official fix ftrom Sun / Oracle is due in 7 - 10 days (approx end
of February) in the form of 146232-14<br>
<br>
Workaround is to turn off CHAP for the time being.<br>
<br>
Just a heads up for everyone.<br>
<br>
<br>
Drew.<br>
