Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated initscripts packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.2 Advanced Update Support.
Description
The initscripts packages contain basic system scripts to boot the system, change
runlevels, activate and deactivate most network interfaces, and shut down the
system cleanly.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Due to an incorrect logic operator, using initscripts to shut down the network
service previously failed with an "Invalid argument" error. With this update,
the code of the shutdown init script has been modified to prevent the problem,
and the error is no longer returned on network service shutdown. (BZ#1212352)
Users of initscripts 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.
