Details

Updated tog-pegasus packages that fix various bugs and add enhancements
are now available.

OpenPegasus WBEM Services for Linux enables management solutions that
deliver increased control of enterprise resources. WBEM is a platform and
resource independent DMTF standard that defines a common information model
and communication protocol for monitoring and controlling resources from
diverse sources.

These updated packages upgrade tog-pegasus to the more recent upstream
version 2.7.2, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over
the previous packaged version. The OpenPegasus Feature Status page
referenced below summarizes the changes in this version. (BZ#474458)

In addition, these updated packages provide fixes for the following bugs:

* the upstream documentation about using SSL with OpenPegasus shipped in
the previous package was inaccurate and out-of-date. This updated package
contains additional documentation in the file README.RedHat.SSL that
describes how to configure and how to use SSL with OpenPegasus. (BZ#479038)

* when the out of process providers feature is enabled, OpenPegasus
executes WBEM providers in a separate process from the WBEM server. This
isolates the server from any problems in the providers. Previously, the
tog-pegasus package installed OpenPegasus with this feature disabled. Now,
OpenPegasus is installed with the out of process providers enabled by
default, therefore making WBEM services more reliable. (BZ#455109)

Users are advised to upgrade to these updated tog-pegasus packages, which
resolve these issues and add these enhancements.
