Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated scsi-target-utils package that fixes multiple bugs is now available
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The scsi-target-utils package contains the daemon and tools to setup and monitor
targets for The Small Computer System Interface (SCSI). Currently, iSCSI
software targets are supported.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Previously, targetadmin (tgtadm) encountered a segmentation fault and the
target daemon (tgtd) could not shut down when users attempted to close an open
connection with ongoing input/output. With this update, tgtadm shuts down the
connection or exits gracefully with an error. (BZ#511002)
- Previously, the target daemon (tgtd) failed under load. With this update,
/var/log/messages contains no more errors and tgtd continues to respond.
(BZ#513241)
- Previously, the target daemon (tgtd) and target admin (tgtadm) supported iSNS,
but tgt-admin and tgtd.conf did not, which made the iSNS setup difficult. This
update rebases the scsi-target-utils to the tgt-1.0.8 release which incorporated
iSNS support in tgtd.conf configuration file parsing. (BZ#627053)
All users of scsi-target-utils are advised to upgrade to this updated package,
which resolves these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
