Release Notes for CSG SM 2.2.1

These Release Notes contain important information for the Content Services Gateway Service Manager (CSG SM), patch release 2.2.1. These notes include the patch installation procedure and four resolved caveats.

The CSG Service Manager enables the service provider to provision service activation features for CSG releases 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, and 5.6.

New and Changed Information

The current release is 2.2. This patch release contains four bug fixes only and no new features.

The CSG Service Manager 2.2 provides full support for CSG versions 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, and 5.6. However, you can also manage a later CSG 5.x version (for example, CSG 5.9a). To implement this workaround, set the CSG_VERSION field to 5.5 or 5.6. The CSG Service Manager will manage the later CSG version but only at the defined feature level (5.5 or 5.6).

In the following example, the user has installed CSG version 5.9a and set the CSG_VERSION field in the group.dat file to 5.5. The CSG Service Manager will manage CSG version 5.9a, but CSG features introduced after CSG 5.5 will not be supported.

Resolved Caveats

Table 1 Resolved Caveats in CSG Service Manager Release 2.2.1
Bug ID	Summary	Explanation
CSCin89900	The group.dat file does not allow the user to configure the version as 5.4 and 5.6	CSG-SM was not allowing users to configure CSG_VERSION as 5.4 and 5.6 in the group.dat file. These versions are now supported.
CSCeh48352	Configuration is changed when the name includes special characters	CSG-SM was changing configurations when the user created configuration elements (such as maps, policies, and so on) that included the special characters. Unsupported characters were the exclamation point (!) and the question mark (?). Also, names could not end with a single backslash (\). This was the result of a CMF patch for the bug CSCed18592. CSG-SM now accepts special characters in configuration names.
CSCeh50465	Problem when Common Services security patch (CSCed18592) is installed	Problem occured if the user installed the Common Services security patch (CSCed18592). Display Config threw a runtime error and showed a blank display. This was corrected.
CSCeh10061	CSG not recognized in slot 1.	With a sup720 cat switch configuration (sups in slot 5-8), it was likely that CSG in a sup2 configuration would appear in slot 1. This was not supportable as the sup2 sits there. CSG-SM now accepts the value "1" for slot numbers.
