1.3.1 Auditing

OES 2 SP2 includes support for third-party developers to create auditing products. For more
information, see

1.3.2 Base Platform Is SLES 10 SP3


With the release of OES 2 SP2, the Linux platform on which OES services run is changed from
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 10 SP2 to SLES 10 SP3 and includes Tomcat 5.5.

1.3.3 CIFS DFS Support

This has been added in OES 2 SP2.

1.3.4 Create EVMS Proposal Option

The Partitioner in the YaST Install offers an option to "Create an EVMS Proposal."
For unpartitioned devices over 20 GB in size, this option creates a boot partition and a container for
the and
swap
device as unpartitioned free space. The default
larger, depending on the amount of RAM the server has.
IMPORTANT: This option applies only if you are installing an NSS volume on the same disk as
your Linux root (/) partition.

1.3.5 Cross-Protocol File Locking Change

Starting with OES 2 SP2, cross-protocol file locking (CPL) is enabled by default as follows:

All new servers with NCP installed have CPL turned on.

If an upgraded server was not configured for CPL prior to the upgrade, CPL will be turned on.

If an upgraded server was configured for CPL prior to the upgrade, the CPL setting
immediately preceding the upgrade is retained.
If a server is only accessed through NCP (AFP and CIFS are not installed), you can achieve an NCP
performance gain of about 10%. However, there is a critical caveat. If you later install AFP or CIFS
and you forget to re-enable CPL, data corruption can occur.
