==============================================
Cause
The problem is caused by the incompatibility between the upgraded version of VRTSperl package and the VRTSacclib package. With the upgraded VRTSperl version, it no longer supports the POSIX::tmpnam() function which is called by the VRTSacclib perl programs.
Resolution
The VRTSacclib is modified to call File::Temp::tmpnam() instead. The fix is released in VRTSacclib version 7.0.3.0 which can be downloaded from the Veritas Services and Operations Readiness Tools (SORT) website.

Application: ACC Library
The agent pack will need to be downloaded and the required VRTSacclib package extracted.
