piranha bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated piranha packages that fix several bugs are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise 5.
Description
Piranha provides high-availability and load balancing services for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. It includes various tools to administer and configure the
Linux Virtual Server (LVS), as well as the heartbeat and failover components.
LVS is a dynamically-adjusted kernel routing mechanism that provides load
balancing, primarily for Web and FTP servers.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Previously, timeout values for both TCP and UDP sessions returned to the
default when both load directors were rebooted simultaneously. With this update,
an option to delay the start of LVS is introduced. (BZ#453451)
- Previously, the pulse daemon failed to parse the load average using
"load_monitor = ruptime". With this update, pulse parses the load average
correctly. (BZ#550126)
- Previously, piranha did not work when SELinux was enabled. With this update,
piranha runs as expected with SELinux. (BZ#604742)
All piranha users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve these issues.
