Patch 2053 — Fix on SAR data collection
General Description:
This patch fixes the collection of SAR data after installing Patch 998

Detailed Description:
SAR got an error in data collection because of a very old revision of Client.pm after installing
Patch 998.
This patch updates Client.pm to fix the error from Patch 998. 
Patch 967 — Client patch for free memory reported as KB by SAR
The free memory was previously reported as "memory pages" by SAR. It has been changed to KB. This is
the client update needed for Solaris clients in this respect. It updates sar_to_psm and SAR.pm.

The patch also contains an update to fix the client daemon that caused a possible loss of data as a
result of PID rotation. This applies to all platforms. Client.pm is updated for this fix.

Patch 966 is the corresponding server patch.
Patch 927 — Client updates for SuSE Linux and AIX 6 / 7
This patch contains updates needed for SuSE client, AIX 6 and AIX 7 client.

This patch contains the Perl programs and modules needed to run SystemAnalyzer on the mentioned
clients. It adds support for Open iT 6.3.0.5.
Patch 998 — Fix for license status transfer by adding lock on cron job
General Description:
Add lock for cron job for license status transfer on Unix client.

Detailed Description:
There are license-status warnings found in openit_serverd.log when the cron job for sending license
status files is triggered many times with short interval. In Management Console tab, when cron 0 for
monitor license status is clicked many times in just a short time, the cron job processes repeatedly
causing the warning in log that the status file already exists. This patch fixes this issue by
updating the Client.pm to make sure that no more than one cron job is running at any time.

Installation
