Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated iscsi-initiator-utils packages that fix various bugs are now
available.
Description
The iscsi-initiator-utils package provides the server daemon for the iSCSI
protocol, as well as the utility programs used to manage it. iSCSI is a
protocol for distributed disk access using SCSI commands sent over Internet
Protocol networks.
Bugs fixed in these updated packages include:
- iscsi doesn't shutdown cleanly when used with dm-multipath and mounting
file sytsems by label.
- iscsi-ls displayed the wrong driver version number.
- iscsi-ls -l lists a blank "Type" field when the type is unknown.
- iscsi-ls -l hangs if target is unreachable.
- A double close on the discovery socket by iscsid leads to syslog message
sent over discovery socket.
Users are advised to upgrade to these updated iscsi-initiator-utils
packages, which resolve these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
