Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated util-linux-ng packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.3 Long Life.
Description
The util-linux-ng packages contain a set of low-level system utilities that are
necessary for a Linux operating system to function.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Prior to this update, on the first call of the "hwclock --systz" command, the
hwclock tool did not correctly adjust the system time during boot. As a
consequence, executing the "hwclock --systz" command to reset the system time
based on the current time zone caused the clock to be incorrectly adjusted by
one hour if the system time was already in UTC. With this update, hwclock
correctly sets the system time when required and the time shifts no longer
occur. (BZ#1074498)
Users of util-linux-ng are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
fix this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
