Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
A new package, edac-utils, is now available. This package improves
user-access to EDAC information,
Description
The edac-utils package is a user-space package for supporting Error
Detection And Correction (EDAC) kernel functionality. It contains scripts
and applications which provide easier access to past EDAC events and alerts
regarding correctable ECC errors in memory modules.
EDAC is the current set of drivers in the Linux kernel that handle
detection of ECC errors from memory controllers for most chipsets
on i386 and x86_64 architectures. This userspace component consists
of an init script which makes sure EDAC drivers and DIMM labels
are loaded at system startup. EDAC also contains a library and utility
for reporting current error counts from the EDAC sysfs files.
All users of systems with EDAC enabled should install this newly-released
package, which adds these enhancements.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
