dump bug fix update

Advisory:	RHBA-2011:1502-1
Type:	Bug Fix Advisory
Severity:	N/A
Issued on:	2012-02-20
Last updated on:	2012-02-20
Affected Products:	Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client)

Details

Updated dump packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 5.

The dump packages contain the "dump" and "restore" commands. The "dump" command
examines files in a file system, determines which ones need to be backed up, and
copies those files to a specified disk, tape, or other storage medium. The
"restore" command performs the inverse function of "dump"; it can restore a full
backup of a file system. Subsequent incremental backups can then be layered on
top of the full backup.

This update fixes the following bug:

* Previously, dump was linked against the libblkid library, which processed many
device-mapper devices inefficiently. With this update, dump has been rebuilt
against an updated version of the libblkid library, and it is now able to
process many device-mapper devices efficiently. (BZ#734039)

All users of dump should upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
