RHBA-2007:1053 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
dlm-kernel bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated dlm-kernel packages that fix a bug are now available.
Description
The dlm-kernel modules allow the dlm (distributed lock manager) to
communicate with the kernel.
Bug fixed: clvmd fails to start after a node reboot. The bug could cause
dlm-kernel to use the wrong source address when multiple IP addresses are
present.
The updated dlm-kernel packages are in sync with the latest kernel:
2.6.9-55.0.12.EL. The modules in earlier dlm-kernel packages failed to load
because they did not match the running kernel. It was possible to
force-load the modules; however, with this update, force-loading is not
necessary.
Users are advised to upgrade to these latest dlm-kernel packages, which
apply this fix.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
