The following defect solutions are included in this release:
When either the unidirectional or bidirectional ObjectServer gateway was configured to transfer alerts.journal table data from a V3.6 or earlier ObjectServer to a V7.2 ObjectServer, the gateway failed. This has been fixed.
Three columns that were added to the alerts.status table for Tivoli Network Manager were missing from the default ObjectServer gateway mapping files. In addition, some of the mapping commands for the Tivoli Network Manager columns were incorrect.
The following columns have been added to the map files:
'NmosDomainName' = '@NmosDomainName',
'NmosEntityId' = '@NmosEntityId',
'NmosManagedStatus' = '@NmosManagedStatus',
The following entries show the recommended setup for the Tivoli Network Manager columns in the .map file for both the unidirectional and bidirectional ObjectServer gateways:
'NmosSerial' = '@NmosSerial',
'NmosObjInst' = '@NmosObjInst',
'NmosCauseType' = '@NmosCauseType',
'NmosDomainName' = '@NmosDomainName',
'NmosEntityId' = '@NmosEntityId',
'NmosManagedStatus' = '@NmosManagedStatus',
'LocalNodeAlias' = '@LocalNodeAlias' ON INSERT ONLY,
The ObjectServer was not passing the value specified for the group ID of an external procedure to the process agent. This meant all processes were run with the group ID set to 0. This is now fixed.
A memory corruption that caused ObjectServer gateways to fail intermittently on Windows operating systems has been fixed.
A probe that was configured to use circular store-and-forward functionality replayed its history with each polling cycle when a virtual ObjectServer definition was used for the Server property. This is now fixed.
The ObjectServer gateway generated errors and failed to resynchronize when the IDUCFlushRate property was set to a value greater than 0 and the flush rate was faster than the amount of time taken to perform the resynchronization. This is now fixed.
Probes can be configured to use the legacy store-and-forward or circular store-and-forward option by using the following property:
StoreAndForward: [ 0 | 1 | 2 ]
Type: INTEGER
Default Value: 1
The values are represented as follows:
0 - Do not use store-and-forward
1 - Legacy store-and-forward
2 - Circular store-and-forward
A communication failure that occurred between the proxy server and clients running on a different endian architecture has been fixed. One example of this problem occurred between a probe running on a Windows x86 operating system, and a proxy server and ObjectServer running on a UNIX (PPC, SPARC) operating system.
Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator (nco_config) now correctly differentiates between parameters and literal host names when configuring ObjectServer external procedures.
Previously, an SQL interactive interface (nco_sql) client was unable to connect to the ObjectServer when connecting from a proxy server. This has been fixed.
Previously, running the Confpack utility (nco_confpack) from the Korn shell caused an "Out of Memory" error. This has been fixed by increasing the amount of memory available to the JVM.
When a process managed by a process agent contained a backslash (\) in the command, the backslash was lost when the configuration file was written to from Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator. This has been fixed.
On Windows, if an event list had dual write connection to two ObjectServers (for example, called MASTER and DISPLAY), the transient event list failed to open on MASTER when run from the command line. This has been fixed.
On Windows, the nco_elct utility could fail if load balancing was used on the desktop server. This has been fixed.
When two ObjectServer clients executed QUERY and SEND MESSAGE concurrently, there was a remote chance of a deadlock. This has been fixed.
The key generator nco_keygen no longer inserts an additional 0x0D byte in some keys on Windows.
When either the unidirectional or bidirectional ObjectServer gateway was configured to transfer alerts.journal table data from a V3.6 or earlier ObjectServer to a V7.2 ObjectServer, the gateway failed. This has been fixed.
A probe that was configured to use circular store-and-forward functionality replayed its history with each polling cycle when a virtual ObjectServer definition was used for the Server property. This is now fixed.
Probes can be configured to use the legacy store-and-forward or circular store-and-forward option by using the following property:
StoreAndForward: [ 0 | 1 | 2 ]
Type: INTEGER
Default Value: 1
The values are represented as follows:
0 - Do not use store-and-forward
1 - Legacy store-and-forward
2 - Circular store-and-forward
Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator (nco_config) now correctly differentiates between parameters and literal host names when configuring ObjectServer external procedures.
Three columns that were added to the alerts.status table for Tivoli Network Manager were missing from the default ObjectServer gateway mapping files. In addition, some of the mapping commands for the Tivoli Network Manager columns were incorrect.
The following columns have been added to the map files:
'NmosDomainName' = '@NmosDomainName',
'NmosEntityId' = '@NmosEntityId',
'NmosManagedStatus' = '@NmosManagedStatus',
The following entries show the recommended setup for the Tivoli Network Manager columns in the .map file for both the unidirectional and bidirectional ObjectServer gateways:
'NmosSerial' = '@NmosSerial',
'NmosObjInst' = '@NmosObjInst',
'NmosCauseType' = '@NmosCauseType',
'NmosDomainName' = '@NmosDomainName',
'NmosEntityId' = '@NmosEntityId',
'NmosManagedStatus' = '@NmosManagedStatus',
'LocalNodeAlias' = '@LocalNodeAlias' ON INSERT ONLY,
The ObjectServer was not passing the value specified for the group ID of an external procedure to the process agent. This meant all processes were run with the group ID set to 0. This is now fixed.
A memory corruption that caused ObjectServer gateways to fail intermittently on Windows operating systems has been fixed.
The ObjectServer gateway generated errors and failed to resynchronize when the IDUCFlushRate property was set to a value greater than 0 and the flush rate was faster than the amount of time taken to perform the resynchronization. This is now fixed.
Previously, the AppDescription field value for an event list was recorded incorrectly in the catalog.connections table when the event list was displayed on a system that had an IPv6 interface. This has been fixed.
Store-and-forward (SAF) functionality in the Probe API is
enhanced to minimize event loss during ObjectServer failover. If
a connection to an ObjectServer is lost, when the probe connects
to the backup ObjectServer, the probe replays the last
RollSAFInterval seconds of events to the ObjectServer.
The following new properties have been added to the libOpl
library:
1)
RollSAFInterval:90
Type: INT
Value: >= 1.5 * Granularity of ObjectServer in failover pair
Purpose: Specifies the time interval in seconds after which the
SAF file is rolled over to the next file. This should be set to a
value that is greater than the granularity of the ObjectServer to
minimise event loss. The default is 90s.
2)
SAFPoolSize : 3
Type: INT
Value: >0
Purpose: Specifies the number of files in the pool that can be
used to store events when the probe is running in SAF mode.
The ObjectServer changes required for this functionality to work
include:
1) Add a new column ProbeSubSecondId (int) to the alerts.status
table in a failover pair of ObjectServers.
The default value for this field is 0. The probe will assign the
incremented value to the ProbeSubSecondId field for those events
that have the same LastOccurrence value.
2) Add the ProbeSubSecondId column to the gateway map.
3) Replace the deduplication trigger in the failover pair of
ObjectServers as follows:
create or replace trigger deduplication
group default_triggers
debug false
enabled true
priority 1
comment 'Deduplication processing for ALERTS.STATUS'
before reinsert on alerts.status
for each row
begin
if ( (old.LastOccurrence > new.LastOccurrence) or ( (
old.ProbeSubSecondId >= new.ProbeSubSecondId)
and (old.LastOccurrence = new.LastOccurrence) ) ) then
cancel;
else
set old.Tally = old.Tally + 1;
set old.LastOccurrence = new.LastOccurrence;
set old.StateChange = getdate();
set old.InternalLast = getdate();
set old.Summary = new.Summary;
set old.AlertKey = new.AlertKey;
set old.ProbeSubSecondId = new.ProbeSubSecondId;
if (( old.Severity = 0) and (new.Severity > 0))
then
set old.Severity = new.Severity;
end if;
end if;
end
Known Issue:
Circular store-and-forward functionality does not behave as expected on ObjectServer failback if a probe is configured to use a virtual ObjectServer definition for the Server property.
Workaround:
Configure the probe to use a primary ObjectServer for the Server property and a backup ObjectServer (with BackupObjectServer: TRUE) for the ServerBackup property.
Escaped newline characters (\n) used within single quotation marks in rules files resulted in a warning, and the line number was incremented erroneously, leading to incorrect line number references for subsequent errors. Warnings are now only reported for literal newline characters, and the line count remains accurate.
The Windows Filter Builder did not handle strings containing escaped single quotes correctly. This has been fixed.
When running tools from the event list, the SQL syntax for the tool can now contain fields that are enclosed in single qutation marks; for example, '@Summary' .
On HP-UX, host names were truncated to 8 characters, which was causing the Oracle Gateway to fail. This has been fixed.
The Event List will now check the status of the connection to the master ObjectServer before commencing a resync operation in Dual Server Desktop mode. The connection will be re-established if necessary. Previously the EventList would fail to re-establish a lost connection.
If a pre-update trigger invoked a procedure, and passed a new field value as the parameter to the procedure, the value received by the procedure was the old value. This is now fixed.
Internal code changes have been made to support the gateways that use the libnipc library.
The UNIX event list now silently handles embedded carriage returns in external tools that previously caused execution errors.
On UNIX, if the local host name and IP address of the local machine were missing from the /etc/hosts file, which was configured to resolve host names, gateways would fail to start. This has been fixed.
The ObjectServer gateways no longer exit when an invalid transfer command is received. Previously, issuing the command "TRANSFER 'tablename' FROM NCOMS TO NCOMS1;" via nco_sql, could cause the process to exit. This issue has been fixed.
Integer values used in dynamic prompt tools are no longer corrupted in the Windows event list.
UNIX authentication within nco_pad on Linux now authenticates against the shadow password file entry (rather than the empty standard password file entry).
If a host name was specified in the process agent configuration file and it failed to resolve, the error message would be logged at the informational level. This has been raised to the warning level.
A new "-elc" command-line option is added to NCOConductor.exe. This option affects all the event list instances invoked from the Conductor menu for that instance of the Conductor. This feature provides similar functionality to the "-config/elc" option of the event list.
A new property has been added to the ObjectServer: RestrictionFiltersAND -restrictfiltersand
This property controls how user restriction filters and group restriction filters are concatenated. The property is set for the system and not per user. Changes to the property come into effect only after the ObjectServer is restarted. The default setting is "true". The values for this property are as follows:
false: All restriction filters are combined using the OR operator. For example, user_rf OR group1 OR group2.
true: All restriction filters are combined using the AND operator. For example, user_rf AND group1 AND group2.
The process agent now logs the failure to resolve reverse host name lookup of an IPv6 address only as a WARNING. Previously, it was logged as an ERROR although the program was able to continue.
This internal update is in preparation for updates to some gateways on the Windows platform.
All Netcool components can now be installed as Win32 services, even when installed with arbitrarily long command-line arguments.
There is no longer a memory leak in the ObjectServer when the system backup sql statement is executed.
The following permissions are added to the default AlertsGateway role. This prevents "permission denied" errors being logged when ObjectServer gateways connect to the ObjectServer as a user belonging to the Gateway group.
grant select on table master.servergroups to role 'AlertsGateway';
grant insert on table master.servergroups to role 'AlertsGateway';
grant update on table master.servergroups to role 'AlertsGateway';
grant delete on table master.servergroups to role 'AlertsGateway';
grant raise on signal gw_counterpart_down to role 'AlertsGateway';
grant raise on signal gw_counterpart_up to role 'AlertsGateway';
grant raise on signal gw_resync_start to role 'AlertsGateway';
grant raise on signal gw_resync_finish to role 'AlertsGateway';
These permissions are in the security.sql file, and so are automatically added to any new ObjectServers that are created using nco_dbinit.
For existing ObjectServers, the above commands must be applied to a running ObjectServer by using nco_sql or nco_config.
A number of problems relating to the processing of SQL elseif statements have been fixed.
1. A sub-select query would cache result sets when it formed part of an elseif statement in a trigger.
2. The cancel command would be incorrectly permitted in a post database action trigger when the command was contained within an elseif statement.
3. A "for each" row loop containing an insert into the table being indexed by the loop would be incorrectly permitted when the insert statement was contained in an elseif statement.
Existing triggers that should not have been permitted will be dropped when the ObjectServer is restarted. A message will be logged if any triggers are dropped.d if any triggers are dropped.
Previously, the ObjectServer would exit if a nested subselect statement used a function. For example, the following SQL command would cause the ObjectServer to exit:
select FullName from security.users where UserID in (select UserID from security.group_members where GroupID in (select OwnerGID from alerts.status where hourofday(LastOccurrence) < 23))
This has been fixed.
The process agent (nco_pad) no longer sends service record changes to other process agents. This used to cause corruption or invalid information in nco_pa_status output, and has been fixed.
Files created using the "CREATE FILE" SQL command would have incorrect permissions on rollover. This has been fixed.
Journal entries over 250 characters in length are no longer corrupted when submitted using the Windows event list.
There is no longer a memory leak in the ObjectServer when an external procedure is created.
Previously, the result of the SQL to_date function could be wrong by one hour due to incorrect handling of daylight saving time. This problem has been fixed.
Previously, the AppDescription field value for an event list was recorded incorrectly in the catalog.connections table when the event list was displayed on a system that had an IPv6 interface. This has been fixed.
Escaped newline characters (\n) used within single quotation marks in rules files resulted in a warning, and the line number was incremented erroneously, leading to incorrect line number references for subsequent errors. Warnings are now only reported for literal newline characters, and the line count remains accurate.
When running tools from the event list, the SQL syntax for the tool can now contain fields that are enclosed in single qutation marks; for example, '@Summary' .
If a pre-update trigger invoked a procedure, and passed a new field value as the parameter to the procedure, the value received by the procedure was the old value. This is now fixed.
Internal code changes have been made to support the gateways that use the libnipc library.
On UNIX, if the local host name and IP address of the local machine were missing from the /etc/hosts file, which was configured to resolve host names, gateways would fail to start. This has been fixed.
The File Details window in Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator now includes a check box for writing information to a single file with an unlimited size. If the file size is set to unlimited, the fields for setting the maximum ObjectServer file size and the maximum number of files to create become unavailable.
Users can elect to change the default alignment settings of data displayed in tables within Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator (nco_config). Changing the alignment resulted in an overpaint issue with the text. This issue has been resolved and columns are refreshed as soon as the alignment change is made.
Previously, running probes with a large network timeout value resulted in segmentation faults. This issue has been fixed by restricting the maximum network timeout value to 2147483.
The send message function in Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator can now be used to send a message to multiple AEN clients using multiple channels.
If an event with a severity that had no corresponding color definition was sent to the Accelerated Event Notification (AEN) client, and an attempt was made to view historical information about this event, the Historical Data Viewer window would stop responding. This issue has been resolved, and the AEN client now displays a white color for events with no corresponding severity color.
The Open URL tools for both Windows and UNIX have been updated to handle URLs containing ampersand (&) symbols. Existing ObjectServers must be updated manually because the new versions of the tools will only be included in new ObjectServers that are created using nco_dbinit.
If not already updated, the Open URL tools should be updated as follows. (All quotation marks are double quotation marks.)
UNIX:
$OMNIBROWSER "@URL"
Windows:
start "" "@URL"
During recovery, the ObjectServer no longer generates an error if the ALTER TRIGGER SET GROUP SQL command assigns a trigger to a group that the trigger already belongs to.
In the Properties window of the Accelerated Event Notification client, the Netcool/Webtop server version can now be selected from a drop-down list.
During UNIX authenticaton, the process agent truncated the encrypted password string that was retrieved from the shadow password file. This could lead to core dumps, or failure to authenticate users by using non-default encryption schemes (where the encrypted password entry began with a $). This has now been fixed.
There is no longer a memory leak in nco_pad when an external action is called.
Previously, the failure of a solitary process under process agent control could go unnoticed if the process failed immediately after starting. This has been resolved.
PAM authentication attempts with a blank username now result in a failure rather than causing Process Agent (nco_pad) to hang.
The UNIX Server Editor, nco_xigen, used to fail when the 'Close' button was pressed if all entries had been deleted, and a new entry had been edited, but not saved. This has been fixed.
Previously, the process agent failed to collect host name alias information if no IPv6 interface was defined. The process agent now defaults back to an IPv4 socket to gather this information if an IPv6 socket cannot be opened.
A core dump could occur if an ObjectServer was shut down when external automations were pending. This has been fixed.
The ALTER SYSTEM BACKUP command no longer fails on Windows when a backup file already exists. Previously, the backup command would fail with a "File exists" error occurring in the ObjectServer log file. This error also affected the automatic_backup trigger, preventing it from creating backups on Windows when backup files existed.
Probes previously reported errors when opening include files or lookup tables if multiple HUP signals were sent. This has been resolved.
The ObjectServer now maintains a persistent connection to nco_pad for running external actions. Previously, the connection was created, a single external action's details were passed to nco_pad, and then the connection was closed.
A new command-line argument has been added to nco_pad to control the maximum number of connections:
-connections <value> : Maximum number of connections permitted. (Default:30)
The ObjectServer gateways had string handling issues in some locales due to the underlying operating system call not being thread safe. This resulted in errors when handling strings containing characters that needed to be escaped. This has now been fixed.
On Solaris, the open source LDAP/PAM module does not operate correctly when many connections or files are open. The number of connections that the ObjectServer can accept will now increase as required, to prevent this issue.
The ObjectServer failed to replicate a table across a gateway, and an "already registered" ( E-IDU-102-048 ) error message was incorrectly recorded in the ObjectServer log file. This error has been fixed.
The ObjectServer's memory usage previously increased when processing commands containing a WHERE condition that compared the string returned by a SQL function with a list comparison operator. The following command is an example of the type of SQL that caused the problem:
SELECT Identifier FROM alerts.status WHERE substr( Node, 1, 2 ) IN ( 'aaaa', 'bbbb');
When using the nco_confpack -import command to import classes, if there are classes with identical class IDs but different class names on the source and target ObjectServer, an ID mismatch error will be raised. To overwrite the class name on the target ObjectServer, use the -force command-line option to suppress the error message.
The ObjectServer no longer core dumps when combining the results of a string function with the NOT LIKE comparison operator.
It is now possible to define a cache filter condition that should be used by an ObjectServer writer when it attempts to refresh its destination table cache at the start of processing a batch of IDUC updates. This filtering is useful in silo-oriented deployemnts where the uni-directional ObjectServer gateway runs locally to the source server. The destination server is a consolidation of events from multiple locations and pulling the cache details for all rows is not really necessary.
The cache filter is set for an ObjectServer gateway by using the table replication definition file, as shown in the following example:
REPLICATE ALL FROM TABLE 'alerts.status'
USING MAP 'StatusMap'
CACHE FILTER 'ServerName IN (\'NCOMS_P\',\'NCOMS_B\')' ;
Both the uni-directional and bi-directional ObjectServer gateways will raise two new signals within the connected ObjectServers to indicate the start and finish of a resynchronisation operation. The two new ObjectServer signals are "gw_resync_start" and "gw_resync_stop", and they provide additional information to an automation about the nature of the ObjectServer's role in the resynchronisation, such as whether it is the master or slave of the operation. Both of the signals have the following signal arguments available within an attached automation:
gateway_name: The name of the gateway that is starting or finishing the resynchronisation; for example, NCO_GATE.
node: The host name of the machine that the gateway is running on.
at: The time at which the resynchronisation was started and finished.
is_master: A boolean that indicates whether the local ObjectServer is the master or slave of the resynchronisation.
The "install-patch-1", "install-patch-2" and "install-patch-3" patches are obsolete and can no longer be installed. This prevents potential issues when installing other patches.
Previously, the use of the following statement in a deduplication trigger caused the internal value of the Serial to be corrupted:
set row old = new;
This has been fixed.
Previously, if a realtime client could not read the IDUC messages sent by the ObjectServer in a timely manner, the send buffer on the ObjectServer would fill up and the send operation would block until the client either resumed reading or was disconnected from the ObjectServer. This has been resolved.
Previously, during an nco_confpack export on Windows, a case sensitive match was performed on the file and directory names specified in exclusions.xml file. However, file and directory names on Windows are not case sensitive.
This has been fixed. The match performed for exclusions.xml on Windows platforms is no longer case sensitive.
The ObjectServer migration from 3.6 to 7.2 using UPGRADE.sh was not migrating the Tools database properly. This is now fixed
.Now the migration of the Tools database is done as follows
: -All 7.2 Tools.* tables entries are copied to the migrated ObjectServer
-Only those Tools.* tables entries from 3.6 will be copied to the migrated objectserver
which are not present in 7.2 Tools.* tables.
-If any Tool entry has exactly the same entry in 3.6 and 7.2, only one entry is retained
from 7.2.
-If any Tools.* tables entry in 3.6 has the same primary key as the 7.2 entry, but has a
different actual entry, then that value will be copied into migrated ObjectServer by
changing primary key value. Changes to the primary key will be logged in the
nco_os_migrate.log file and related Tools tables will be changed accordingly during
migration.
Before this fix, for some classes with duplicated class names, nco_confpack could only list, export and import one class entry for them. Now all classes on the source ObjectServer can be exported and then imported to the target ObjectServer, regardless of whether their names are duplicated. The list file generated by nco_confpack using the -list option has both Class Id and Class Name for Classes to identify individual classes.
The "When" condition clause of a temporal trigger was being stripped out when importing this trigger to a target ObjectServer. This problem has now been fixed. The condition clause is now imported properly.
Probes were logging their encrypted properties in plain text when debug logging was switched on and the log file rolled over. They now log their encrypted properties as "*********".
Encrypted properties and the keyfile property entry could not contain any envronment variables (for example, OMNIHOME) as part of their path. They are now expanded correctly.
Previously, the linux2x86install script would not install the startup service in the correct format for SuSE Linux. This was partly due to specific Red Hat functions being used in the "nco" service script
.The service script has now been modified to use SuSE specific functions as well as Red Hat ones. The install script now distinguishes between different types of Linux and either includes or discards sections of the "nco" service script based on the type of Linux being used
.Any lines that are specific to either Red Hat or to SuSE Linux are now enclosed in comment lines as follows
: ### REDHAT ONLY
<Red Hat specific lines>
...
### END REDHAT ONLY
### SUSE ONLY
<SuSE specific lines>
...
### END SUSE ONLY
Do not nest the "REDHAT ONLY" and "SUSE ONLY" lines.
Transient views and filters (created with NCOELCT.EXE) are no longer added to view/filter drop down boxes unless "Keep Window" menu option selected.
The transient event list (nco_elct) now runs on a slow network without issues when other event lists (nco_event) are running.
If a probe connected to an ObjectServer just as the server was starting up or shutting down, the probe could enter SAF mode and not leave it. This has been fixed.
Previously there was a problem with menu options selected from a transient view window that had been launched by NCOElct on Windows. If, for example, the freeze option was selected from the pull down menu, the Event List would crash and need restarting. All pull down menu options now work correctly from the transient view.
The nco_g_tivoli_eif gateway was failing to start due to a race condition. This has been fixed. Also fixed was an issue whereby gateway watch messages occasionally caused the gateway to fail.
The UNIX Filter Builder has been extended to allow more advanced conditions to be created. The Filter Builder allows the construction of predicates of different levels of complexity. The existing 'Simple' and 'Complex' types are restricted to predicates of the form 'ColumnName operator expression'. The new 'Freeform' type permits you to enter an arbitary predicate. This allows the advanced features of the v7 ObjectServer SQL to be used. As each predicate is edited, it is validated by the ObjectServer. Individual predicates are built into a complete condition as before.
When running most components on AIX 6.1, the following error was generated
."Error: Unknown target platform : AIX
Using the default program setting."
This has now been fixed.
In the Unix Event List, when the user attempted to perform a significantly large command, such as deleting 30,000 events, the Event List would disconnect and the tool would not run
.This was due to the use of a fixed-size memory pool for Sybase connections in the Event List. When a tool is used that is too large to fit into the memory pool, a memory error occurs
.The use of a memory pool has been disabled by default. The system now supplies the Event List's memory requirements. If necessary, the memory pool can be reactivated by setting the NCO_MEM_POOL_SIZE environment variable to a minimum of 1048576 (1 megabyte).

This allows the advanced features of the v7 ObjectServer SQL to be used. As each predicate is edited, it is validated by the ObjectServer. Individual predicates are built into a complete condition as before.
nco_igen did not run on AIX 6 unless the '-arch' option was specified. nco_igen will now run without this option, and will create $NCHOME/etc/interface.aix5 which is still used by other programs.
The filter builder no longer drops the last item from the IN list within SQL statements.
This bug occurred when a probe was connected to a failover ObjectServer pair and was configured such that SAF and polling were enabled. If the primary ObjectServer went down then the probe would crash when receiving a HUP signal. In the fixed version, it now correctly reloads its rules files when connected to the backup server as well as the primary server.
This fixes a rare condition in the process agent (PA) logging system. If an external process of the PA logged a message to the PA's log file at the exact point that it rolls over, the PA would continue to write to the "_old" log file instead of the new log file. This would continue to happen until the system's maximum file size was reached, at which point the PA would crash. This no longer happens.
