Synopsis
device-mapper-multipath bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated device-mapper-multipath packages that fix two bugs are now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The device-mapper-multipath utility provides tools to manage multipath devices
by giving the "dm-multipath" kernel module instructions on what to do, as well
as by managing the creation and removal of partitions for device-mapper devices.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Previously, multipath marked paths as failed if it could not determine
whether the path was offline through sysfs. With this update, multipath calls
the path_checker function to get the path's state when it cannot be determined.
(BZ#696133)
- Previously, the multipath daemon did not remove restored paths correctly when
one dervice path came online after another device path failed. Due to this
issue, the multipath daemon could terminate unexpectedly with a segmentation
fault on a multipath device when the path_grouping_policy option was set to the
group_by_prio value. With this update multipath removes and restores such paths
correctly. (BZ#702402)
All users of device-mapper-multipath are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which fix these bugs.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
