RHBA-2007:0997 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
GFS bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated GFS packages that fix a bug are now available.
Description
The GFS packages provide the user-level tools necessary to mount and use
GFS file systems.
gfs_fsck had problems dealing with resource groups when the block was
neither "GFS_METATYPE_RB" or "GFS_METATYPE_RG". Running the gfs_fsck
command may have caused a "Resource group or index is corrupted" error.
All GFS users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
