Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
* sosreport called systool with an invalid option ("-C" instead of "-c"). Consequently, when sosreport ran on systems with SCSI components, the report would contain the output of systool's error message rather than information on the hardware. Furthermore, sosreport would not alert the user that it had encountered an unexpected exit status from systool. The typo has been corrected, and sosreport now works correctly on systems with SCSI components.
