Bug Fix Advisory GFS bug-fix update

Advisory: RHBA-2008:1006-2
Type: Bug Fix Advisory
Severity: N/A
Issued on: 2009-01-29
Last updated on: 2009-01-29
Affected Products: Global File System EL3
OVAL: N/A

Details

Updated GFS packages that fix module-loading issues are now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.9, kernel release 2.4.21-58.EL.

The Red Hat Global File System (GFS) allows a cluster of Linux servers to
share data in a common pool of storage.

These updated GFS packages are in sync with the latest kernel
(2.4.21-58.EL). The modules in earlier GFS packages fail to load because
they do not match the running kernel. It is possible to force-load the
modules; however, with this update, force-loading the modules is not required.

Users are advised to upgrade to these latest GFS packages, which are
updated for use with the 2.4.21-58.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.
