Bug Fix Advisory cman bug fix update

Advisory: RHBA-2008:0125-3
Type: Bug Fix Advisory
Severity: N/A
Issued on: 2008-03-14
Last updated on: 2008-03-14
Affected Products: Cluster Suite EL4
OVAL: N/A

Details

Updated cman packages that fix a bug are now available.

The Cluster Manager (cman) utility provides user-level services for
managing a Linux cluster.

In the previous cman packages, qdisk ignored the interval set in
cluster.conf for checking heuristics. In order to check heuristics, qdiskd
had to be restarted. In certain cases, nodes may not have been fenced when
the cluster was no longer quorate. In these updated packages, qdisk honours
the interval set in cluster.conf for checking heuristics.

Users of cman are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve this issue.


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.
