RHEA-2006:0130 - Product Enhancement Advisory
Synopsis
Frysk technology preview
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
A new package that provides a technology preview of Frysk is now available.
Description
Frysk is an execution-analysis technology implemented using native Java and
C++. It is aimed at providing developers and sysadmins with the ability to
both examine and analyze running multi-host, multi-process, multi-threaded
systems. Frysk allows the monitoring of running processes and threads, of
locking primitives and will also expose deadlocks, gather data and debug
any given process in the system.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 3 includes a technology preview release
of Frysk, a new execution analysis framework. Users are encouraged to find
more information and provide feedback on the technology preview at the
Frysk project web site: http://sources.redhat.com/frysk
Note that this technology preview release of Frysk is not supported for use
in production environments, and that Frysk interfaces and APIs are subject
to change during the technology preview phase. A fully supported release
of Frysk is planned for future releases of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Users interested in previewing in non-production environments should
upgrade to this new package.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
