Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
A new fcoe-utils package is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The fcoe-utils package contains the fcoeadm command line utility, which is
the Fibre Channel-over-Ethernet (FCoE) management tool for Linux systems.
The fcoeadm utility can create, destroy and reset an FCoE instance on a
given network interface, as well as retrieve and display information about
FCoE instances.
This fcoe-utils package is new to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. (BZ#494555)
All Fibre Channel-over-Ethernet users requiring an administrative FCoE
interface should install this newly-released package, which adds this
enhancement.
