RHBA-2009:0433 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
lvm2-cluster bug-fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated lvm2-cluster packages that fix a bug are now available.
Description
The lvm2-cluster packages contain support for Logical Volume Management in
a clustered environment.
These updated packages apply the following bug fix:
- Increasing clvmd memory consumption during vgscan -- The bug fix flushes
memory pool after refresh and remote metadata backup command (called, for
example, by vgscan or clvmd -R commands) and avoids increasing memory
consumption.
All lvm2-cluster users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which resolve this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filenames]
where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the
desired RPMs.
Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
