Synopsis
xen bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated xen packages that close a memory leak in xend are now available.
Description
Xen is a high-performance and secure open source virtualization framework.
Virtualization allows users to run guest operating systems in virtual
machines on top of a host operating system.
These updated xen packages fix the following bug:
- following a guest shutdown, attempting to recreate that guest may have
failed due to timing issues, which caused the xend daemon to think that the
guest name was still in use, even though it was not. Also, the "xm list"
command (correctly) did not show the name of the guest which had shut down.
As a temporary workaround, running the "xm list" command once would rectify
this situation so that the guest with the same name as the one which had
been shut down could be recreated. This update resolves this issue so that
a guest with the same name as a guest which has recently been shut down can
be recreated immediately, without having to run an interim command.
(BZ#547289)
Xen users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve
this issue. Note: after installation, the xend service must be restarted
for this update to take effect.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
