RHBA-2010:0057 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
bootparamd bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated bootparamd package that fixes a bug is now available.
Description
Bootparamd is a server process that provides information to diskless
clients necessary for booting; consulting the /etc/bootparams file for
required information.
When bootparamd is used for multihomed environment handling, it would
previously evaluate the route to be returned to the first requesting client
and re-evaluate the route to be returned for each client thereafter. Even
though it re-evaluates what router IP to return for each following client,
it would always send back the first route, due to it being the one that was
cached. This updated package ensures that no re-evaluation occurs
concerning the router IP to return for each client. (BZ#446108)
All users of bootparamd are advised to upgrade to this updated package,
which resolves this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
