Synopsis
GFS bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated GFS packages that resolve module loading issues are now available
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 Update 9, kernel release 2.4.21-51.EL.
Description
The Red Hat Global File System (GFS) provides high availability of critical
server applications in the event of system downtime.
These updated GFS packages are in sync with the latest kernel
(2.4.21-51.EL). The modules in earlier GFS packages failed to load because
they did not match the running kernel. It was possible to force-load the
modules; however, with this update, users do not need to do so.
Users are advised to upgrade to these latest GFS packages, which are
updated for use with the 2.4.21-51.EL kernel.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filenames]
where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the
desired RPMs.
Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
