RHBA-2012:0924 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
tuned bug fix and enhancement update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated tuned packages that fix two bugs and add two enhancements are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The tuned package contains a daemon that tunes system settings dynamically. It
does so by monitoring the usage of several system components periodically.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- When the diskdevstat or netdevstat tool was run with wrong command-line
arguments, the tool returned a compilation error and exited. Both tools have
been fixed to check the command-line arguments. With this update, a short usage
help message is printed in the described scenario, describing the available
options. (BZ#747210)
- When the tuned utility was running in a virtual guest, the disk-scheduler
setting was not applied on virtual disks (vd*). Now, default configuration files
that cover virtual disks have been updated and the disk-scheduler setting is now
applied on the virtual disks in virtual guests. (BZ#725497)
This update adds the following enhancements:
- With this update, a new "virtual-host" profile has been added to the tuned
package, providing fine-tuned profile for hypervisors managed by Red Hat
Enterprise Virtualization Manager. (BZ#740976)
- With this update, a new "virtual-guest" profile for virtual systems has been
added to the tuned package, providing fine-tuned profile for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 6 KVM virtual guests. (BZ#740977)
Users of tuned are advised to upgrade to these updated packages which fix these
bugs and add these enhancements.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
