PROBLEM: (82164) (PATCH ID: OSF510-160)
********
The EVM daemon will crash if there are blank lines in /etc/rc.config.
Normally, standard system utilities are used to manipulate 
/etc/rc.config and the format of the file is maintained.  However, if
an editor is used to change /etc/rc.config, blank lines may be inserted.
 Removing any blank lines in /etc/rc.config will also correct this
problem.


PROBLEM: (87593, 90868, EVMLOGGER) (PATCH ID: OSF510-456)
********
This patch fixes a problem in which EVM subscribing clients will
unexpectedly drop a connection.  This affects any EVM client including
the EVM log manager, /usr/sbin/evmlogger.
The EVM subscription is dropped after an attempt to deliver
a large event ( generally larger than 128 KB ).  Normally this is not
a problem.  But there are events on large configurations, such as a
machine state change ( FRU tabel event ) on a GS320, that can cause 
the problem.  The problem will be seen only if the subscriber is 
configured to receive this event.  The EVM logger by default is not
configured to recieve such events but changing the default filter for
the logger may trigger this problem.

The connection may not be lost immediately following the delivery of
a large event.  It is possible for the connection to be lost several
days later if there is light system event activity.


PROBLEM: (89264) (PATCH ID: OSF510-510)
********
In rare circumstances it is possible for an EVM posting client or the
EVM daemon to core dump if an attempt to allocate memory fails.  The
problem is resolved by application of this patch.
