RHBA-2010:0550 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
rgmanager bug-fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated rgmanager package that fixes two bugs is now available.
Description
The rgmanager package contains the Red Hat Resource Group Manager, which
provides high availability of critical server applications.
This update resolves the following issues:
- if an application was using a mount point with similar name to a mount point
managed by rgmanager and force_unmount was used, the file system agent could
kill that particular process. This issue has been resolved and the file system
agent kills only the processes that access the mount point managed by rgmanager.
(BZ#572248)
- nfsclient.sh used to leave temporary files in /tmp. This issue has been
resolved and temporary files are now correctly removed when the client cache is
disabled. (BZ#572632).
All Red Hat Resource Group Manager users are advised to upgrade to this updated
package, which resolves these issues.
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.
