Synopsis
lvm2-cluster bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated lvm2-cluster packages that include various bug fixes are now
available.
Description
The lvm2-cluster packages contain support for logical volume management in
a clustered environment.
This update ensures that the bugs fixed by lvm2 advisory RHBA-2007:0516 and
device-mapper advisory RHBA-2007:0514 are also fixed in a clustered
environment.
Additionally, this update:
- fixes several bugs in 'clvmd' that can cause the daemon to hang or crash.
- fixes some cases where a locking bug allowed metadata to be read
incorrectly whilst it was being changed.
- displays more detailed error messages in many cases and suppresses a few
unnecessary ones.
- adds debugging messages to 'clvmd' if invoked with '-d'.
- adds a startup timeout command line option '-T' to 'clvmd'.
- updates 'clvmd' to handle quorum devices properly.
- now flags 'nolocking' as clustered so 'clvmd' startup sees clustered LVs.
All users of lvm2-cluster should upgrade to these updated packages, which
include these bug fixes.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
